foglight idea
need to know is it possable to remove the foglight lens from a early classic light and replace with a spotlight lens . i have measured ring rally spots and the lens appear to be the same size ??

On the older foglights, those NOT having a clear lens, you MIGHT get away with it, assuming you could seal it again.....Sika-Flex might do it, or Tiger seal. NOT silicone.!
Can you split the Ring lights easily into glass and refelector? Or are you thinking of putting the whole lot in place inside the Scoob back?
Also take into account that the Ring lights are made to focus the light from the RING reflector, NOT the Scoob one. NOT all refectors are the saem.
I can't remember my foglights well enough, I gave the old ones away years ago, but I DO know they were "handed", would that be a problem?
It's interesting, let us know if it goes any further?
Edited to say: Forgot the original query: yes, you can split the foglights, place in an oven at 50 degrees until the glue softens, then carefully prise apart.

AFAIK, not tried that, but both foglights and headlights have been split as above, successfully.
Get it warm enough so that the glue is soft, handle with a cloth, prise apart gently with a sharp knife, work quickly in a warm area.
