I like the first one. Good luck.

Quick question on the Depo's. It appears that the orange lens was removed for the turn signal. Is this the case? I would like to have a chrome bulb installed to provide the clear look and get rid of the orange.

Hysterical Greybeard and thanks for clarifying. We are definitely on opposite sides of the fence on this one.

You know, the answer might be to take apart the lense itself. Tape it off. Paint it black. Then add the second light per lense. After all that. Cut out a smaller lense, just for the headlight. Then reseal with epoxy and smooth the edges with a Plastic Welder.

Thanks everyone for your help on this.

I will draw something up using the factory headlamps.

Good to see more people like myself with the same mental issue I have.

Fender on. I still need an outside support bracket. The junk yard I bought this fender from did not include the hardware needed to install the fender correctly.

Here is a picture of the new fender in place.

Hmmmm, one orange fender, you may have started a new trend here. Just sit back and watch how many other HHR's suddenly have one orange fender, because it is now officially "Cool".

P.S. Just kidding ya know.
