Probably don't even need covers...just remove the black coating. The entire light assembly and wiring is there...just no bulbs....at least that was the case for my car when I had the front clam removed to install an upgraded radiator.

I'm amazed that Lotus would do that... Very cool for the Cup car owners, IMO...

I ran into a cup car owner a while back that had his car licensed We was pulled over for his headlights being too low (had the fog lights, but the headlights were still blacked out) and he simply told the cop that's how the car came and they let him go... How he got it licensed, I don't know???

Side note, I sure wish Lotus kept the old dash that the cup cars have. Darn airbags ruin everything

Best,

Phil

Does seem amazing - but thinking about it why would Lotus make something different for the few US Cup cars when simply coating an existing component achieves the goal Very Lotus

My light assembly and bulbs are there. Remove the black film and turn on the lights.
