R&G Tail tidy

Did it myself with the help of a friend. Had to wiggle it in past the half on/half off plastics, the nuts and bolts were hard get in the holes due to the subframe being in the way. Oh and I overtightened them.

Yeah sounds like my problems...

It's very hard to fit (I think)
The plate light is woeful (and you have to fit your own connectors!)
You have to cut a hole in the plate for the light
or
You have to bend it at a very weird angle to stop the back wheel catching the plate (it happened to me)
There is no reflector (but you can get a stick on one for the plate)


Vs the hamicad

Easier to fit
Uses the OEM plate light
Has no wheel touching issues (as far as I am aware)
Can fit the OEM reflector on to the back of the plate light fitting


Also, evotech do a tail tidy that gets good reviews.

The R&G website says you can retain the OEM numberplate light if you like - you don't have to use theirs.

Mmm, unless they've changed it I don't see how one could do that.

Oh looks like they may have made some modifications!
