I am going to take the plunge and order some sidelights.
I suspect that the Torpedo may be more 'kosher' on a 2011 4/4, but I do like the look of the Medallion version
any thoughts please
Jeff

Sorry....missed your first posting, youve made the right choice! Don't forget the old saying....."measure twice cut once"

Sorry....missed your first posting, youve made the right choice! Don't forget the old saying....."measure twice cut once" +1 and don't assume the wings etc. are exactly the same width. You may find the wiing tucked up inside the inner wing already...

Such a shame that these are now not provided - they are one of the defining features of a Morgan trad and look great in the view from behind the wheel!

Mine came with but if I ever get  to allow the spend (aka not funding the kids for life) then they will be fitted. Trouble is I think the car will be the same colour & a +4 as the Roadster sump won't survive the spped bumps on our private road so I also need to convince myself of the need vs other toys

If she sees that "smiley" she'll never allow it! On the other hand, if the new car is the same colour, and you transfer the reg, you might be able to sneak it in...?

If anyone with a late 4/4 with these fitted has time to throw a tape over Id be v appreciative.
Esp distance from front edge of wing to front of side light or front of the foot the sudelight sits on, andvdistance from outer edge of wing to side of footing
