I see in the new Pantera magazine another car that has removed bumpers and side markers and has the holes patched where the bumpers and markers were. The directionals are also removed from the front and the holes filled. My question is where are the directionals? I assume they're in the grill some where. Is there a kit everyone is using or are the directionals being adapted from another car? I love that look. If any one on the board has done it do they have any advice? Thanks, Vince

I actually haven't installed front indicators yet. However I will install them in the front grill as you have mentioned. The light for the job is a motorcycle indicator for a large bike. It needs to be about 5-6" mounting stem to be visible. DOT ( US ) regulations say the indicator must be 15" above the ground. For the Pantera that means right against the front trunk lid!
I run no bumbers or directionals also, and it looks better in my opinion...never mind tickets and bumping into something though. But I understand that some states require a full check of the car to get annual registration (NY I believe), so some actually need the directionals or no registration.

Pat Holleran has a nice setup for front directionals just under the head lights (see link below), I believe from a BMW, but not sure. I have closer photos of the light if interested.
