  • Finally have my 121 grille and lights installed

    Just a quick shot of my Festiva with the 121 grille and lights.

    Don't mind the messy garage or the rusty hood



    It's amazing how much better these headlights are! There is actually a definite pattern in the light and I can see much better.

    Thanks again to 1988DA for his efforts in getting the grille to me in one piece:thumbup:

                    Hi All,

                    Fastivaca scored the rarer of the 2 DA 121 Grille types & imho the better looking design.

                    Whenever I find an undamaged 121 DA front clip I'll be salvaging it from the local JY's - there's now a long list of requests PM'd to me for these parts! ..will be working through these based on timing of request.

                    NB: The Grilles present a challenge for International shipping due to length, if I build up a good qty then it will make sense to send them across as a group buy for final distribution by a US/Canada based member. Any volunteers if it gets to that point?

                    Cheers,

                      I'd be willing to be a Canadian middle man if these turn into a group buy

                      If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

                        Thanks Chris. The grilles can be mailed within Canada quite reasonably. From Montreal to Calgary was just over $30. To ship it via Fedex or DHL from Australia was well over $200.00!

                          I can be the US sender - I have access to UPS and know the check in process in Customs in Chicago if you dont use a broker - also crates are not a problem (access to forklift) and my work address is a commercial address so the rates are better

                              Good stuff. I'll start a new post on 121 Grille/Lights once the collection starts to grow.
