    Giro, Le-Mans abd GT Cars

    Can anyone help with headlights make and size fitted to these cars . There was generally two configurations I can see. One sits next to indicator or I think it's the side light? And the other type fills the whole recess and ind/ side light is below on the front panel.
    I'm going for Giro front and would like the headlight next to side light setup like the Marlboro car. Can't find any info on light make type or size. I'm guessing whatever they are there no longer available . A Modern alternative would be appreciated. Can't find much in the web on the cars. Recess depth measures 100mm but light unit looks to overhang the recess . Not sure how they would be mounted in the panel either ?
    Thanks

    Version with side light below headlight . Cibi'e from the obvious logo, the front moulding does look different on these cars, larger pocket and more square outboard to suit light.

    You would think:
    Fiat 127/126

    I think the lights on the Marlboro car are Peugeot 504 Coupe as per the photograph

    I don't think you'll get away with headlights that low. Isn't there a minimum height to pass IVA?

    No worries I have pop up lights on giro front and also still have std front for test. If need be. Fiat 126 lights look right although these are 133mm high so not too sure if they would fit 100 high pocket . Back of light is sloped so may work.
