Someone once told me that the parkers for the Sports model were found in the bumper. Here's a photo from carsales.com.au of a Sports. Is the circled light the parker because I thought they were fog / drive lights.

No. They are fog lights. The parkers for the sports/vr/vrx parabolics are
in the parabolics. Only the KE+ veradas have the parkers in the bumpers.
If you look into the parabolics of the KE+ veradas you can actually see a
hole where the parker is meant to go into (for the sports/vr/vrx).

Yeah, thought so. Can someone take a photo of their paras to show me the bracket and gap? I know I've seen something that's in there but I couldn't workout how to attach the parker. I get home this weekend and I plan on getting my wiring right for the low / high beam and I'd like to get the parkers in too.

I'll post a pic of the parabolic parker bulb holders when I get home later tonight. (It has two parts that 'clip' together - the braket and the bulb holder section)

I reused my existing Magna parkers and jammed them into the whole in the brakets left by removing the bulb holder part cos it saved me having to do extra wiring 'n' crap. :-)

See the thing labelled spring in this diagram? It's actually the parker bulb holder assembly including bracket. (Note: pay no attention to the red & green circles!).

Hope that all made sense...

I think that does. That explains why I what I've been looking at doesn't make sence. Well, can't wait to get home now.

I know what thread that image came from too. You were helping me with the wiring q's too 8)

These clip into a bracket that holds them in place.

Hope this helps.

P.S.> Sorry about the picture quality!

Did you end up getting your paras all wired up and working properly?

Not yet. Still in Melb. I fly home Sat night and will have a look on Sunday.
