My recommendation for Aussie cars is to source a set of US buckets then upgrade with new lights. Of course, relays are a compulsory mod, and new wiring is also good insurance.

Thanks Beatle,you are correct. I note that my CP neglects to state that I'm in USA -I'll fix that. My GTV6 has buckets, sort of a chrome type reflective surface. What I'm curious to know; is it feasible to refinish these buckets to enhance reflectivity? How? Mine are a little yellowish & some pitting. alfaGORF
