Is there any rules on the positioning of the side repeaters. I want to get rid of the afterthought ones Fiat fitted on the Multi, and I'm thinking of sticking them inside the front quarter glass right at the top.

So up in the window is OK then, as its less than 1.5 meters from the ground. Does that mean you've got to be able to see it from a 5 degree angle from the rear?

I was gonna make a little box out of the reflector from inside a headlight, then stick a orange 501 bulb in it and bond it to the glass, the run the wires inside the trim.
