This is not a simple job. While the MK1 grill and
lights are perpendicular to the center line of the
car, the MK2 lights are not (swept away a bit back
from the center of the car). The Mk2 core support is
considerably larger and longer than the MK1. Believe
me, I have spent much time with my MK1 and MK2 side by
side pondering this idea (I hated the MK2 for years
becuz of the square lights).

Spec out this project carefully before you undertake
it - it can be done, but not easily.

This is necessary.
