   Smoked jewels look ace or you could always stay standard... The standard citroen ones aren't as ugly as most of the aftermarket 'improvements'

   i say mk2's will look good on your car. your cars pretty much standard so may look odd with aftermarket lights. smoked jewels are far too common these days i think

   smoked jewels all the way!!! they look nice not tacky like most aftermarket lights, i hate lexus lights but thats my opinion there are many different types of rear lights out there!

    i think Rodzd126 is right some new sdt mk2 lights would suit because aftermarkets will look odd

    my friend bought some all black ones from ebay which are highly illegal and i made a bet saying if i bought some light tinting spray paint that mine will look just the same and won't be illegal... if it went wrong i could just go srappy to get some more. i srapyed them and they look really good, Dont look tacky or cheap at all. was very pleased but most of all i did my mate over a treat... so give it a go, was only around £10 from ebay mate x

    Not keen on those rear morrettes i'm affraid
    
    I'd say just get some fresh MK2 rears, well you only need one seen as though you've already got one As said i don't think aftermarket lights would suit it. Smoked jewells only look good on black and mango saxos imo.

    for something a little different buy some clear jewels and use red laquer on the bottom half imo they look very nice and fresh but you will need to respray them every 5-6 months
