Quiz time

I need some front wings to cut and shut that fit original mini headlight bowls, so:

What cars used the same size headlights as the original mini?





How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

Are they just normal 7" sealed beam units?

If so... Most of the MG cars of that era.... the TVR M series....

Older style Morgan cars?

Landrover defender?

I got a really really good deal on some units with the bowl, wiring and headlights.
I just need some cheap wings to fit them to.
