they proper vauxhall jobbies which clip on, or replicas??

if there the vauxhall ones, get the clips & use a sprit level to get them on straight & also make sure there at the right distances...

your gona need GSi arches too so they dont look out of place & wrong!

Replicas, use some tiger-seal or something to glue them on & they \'should\' stick ok, but keep them level as said!

Spirit level, don\'t make me laugh. What if the car is lower at one end or is on un-even ground.
Are GSI arches any different to normal ones.

Why would you wanna spend more cash or GSI arches that you don\'t need. If your colour codding then they need to be smooth anyway plus it never hurt anyone to play a little doctors and nurses.
