Chris C's grille is the Hella one with the driving lights isn't it?!

If you want a colour coded one....just whip out the rattle cans and get painting!

cheers

Yep, mine is the standard Hella grill, I havn't sprayed it yet though, keep thinking whether too.

Called up the wreckers. they asked me the year. So its called a hella grill, do they fit into the 360 the same?

are there any differences in years?
i have no idea.

how much do they cost on average, considering that its just a piece of plastic?

Can't tell you the cost, but the bottom of the grill has two 'pegs' on each side, you're supposed to snap off the one not required. Can't tell you about fit on a 360, but they only fit (out of the box) 340's till '89, I had to make up some adapting brackets as my '91 didn't have the holes to receive the pegs in either of the places. Not a hard job though, couple of small bits of sheet, drill and files

340 / 360 grilles of the same year are interchangable. This was an aftermarket accessory, so you'll be VERY lucky to find one on a scrapper -luckier than finding factory bits (like gauges) I'd say. Try scouring ebay.

Good luck!
