Having nearly suffered a rectal-prolapse when told how much it'd be for P1 driving lights, I was considering...
1. Buying STI fog lamp covers.
2. Buying Projector-type driving lights.
3. Painting and putting a hole in the covers.
4. Mounting the lights behind them, attaching to the car and wiring-up.
5. "Here's some I prepared earlier"
Comments? (Constructive criticism, please!)
I was also thinking about making my own Ford focus rally car:
1. Buy a packet of cornflakes...Throw away cornflakes. This will become the body-shell - Some welding may be required.
2. Get a rubber band. Now you have a fully tuned Cosworth-zetec engine, to rival the real one.
3. Ooh, wheels, nearly forgot...Ummm...Got any Polo mints?
4. Put on gas mark 4 for an hour.
5. Buy a Subaru instead, you nutter.
Sorry...Slow work day!

How about a Diy Cossie:
1. Take a an empty fairy liquid bottle.
2. The motor from an electric mirror.
3. Some wet cotton wool for dampers/springs
4. I should stop this now before Rainbird kicks my ***.
Coat Please

Reckon you'll get away with Tescos value bottles.
No cotton wool - don't think they're that effective.
Bag of spanners for the engine sound.
IQ test required first - sub 10 only will qualify.
Answer to the original question. You can try it but unless you can mould the covers so it doesn't look like just a cut hole, may look a little cack.
Unless you can find a decent dealer who can provide the P1 covers. Then it'd be fine.

That all sounds quite good, but i do not agree with the Cornflake box.. it would have to be at least a Weetabix box as everytime a Scoob was near ... it would run away from you very very quickly as it would be scared of all that strength and agility - or is that just because it's quicker? lol
