can anyone tell me how to fit a set of clear indicators from a commodore into my TE? I'm just not sure how to hold them in place!

i had a brif descussion with a mate the other day on this and i think he said that you have to just file out the hole a little bit and drill the appropriate holes to screw em in. i could be totally wrong cos ive never done it but thats the way it came across to me. i havnt even had a look at how they are held but use your imagination.
sorry if im no help.

your right the hole is ay to fkn big
but if you can line it up perfct you wont get gaps
what i did was....removed old ones and cut and polish the area to get rid of the black mark of the old indicator
then i took out the plastic nuts/clips for the screw sthat are in the gaurd
after scuffing behind those two screw holes with some sandpaper and giving a clean i put some masking tape behind these twoo little holes
then from the front a put a big blob of this silicon adhesive shit (not superglue) and taped the indicators on overnight, and there you have it.

ps does any one know if you r meant to have orange globes?
- in vic?
