new face

I always liked this grille.I think it makes the T3 more oldskool,even though its more modern.Put it on today.
I hoping to improve the lights also,put in some 100x,blue tinge globes in too.Will take it out tonight and have a look.
Will hook up some relays also,whats the best way to do this?Two on the driving lights,one each side,or 4 relays,one on each light,and then the spoties too???

Now you just need the indicator covers with the extra lights 🙂

Don't whinge about cars coming towards you with blue beam lights when you have them fitted yourself.

I'm pretty sure this is a South African grille from the late-model T3s they made over there up to the early 2000s. The South Africans called it the 'Volksiebus' and they were fitted with 2.3-litre 5-cylinder Audi engines. The Uitenhage VW factory changed the body pressings as well - the rear engine top cover is higher (to fit the bigger engine), and if you look closely you can see the side window line has been lowered to make the windows bigger. The radiator grille is also bigger and wider.

Do a google search on 'Volksiebus' and you'll see. Those grilles must still be available as a new part from South Africa.

The Seth Effricans also made some great Volksiebus ads - check this one out.

That grille looks nice on your T25 Ben.

That's something Geoff Paradise would say !

Looove the Volksiebus add, LMAO

Thanks guys.
I dont winge about blue headlights,I like them.
Mine though, are not that blue compared to some.
But the lights are much improved on standard.
