I can tell you one thing, and it's about the only worthwhile change you can do from an RB to an older Gemini.
The front indicator repeaters that are found on the fenders is smooth and nearly oval-shaped. It will screw straight in where the square-ish guard indicators are on a TX-TC-TD and TE.
I read about a guy who fitted an RB front bumper to his TG, but it was a big job involving lots of cutting and shutting - hardly worth it, but it sure made his car look smoother. |

| just out of curiosity, why the fuck would you want to???? if you ask me, and im sure some others around here, rb's are not geminis they are pieces of shit and no part of them will ever have any place on part of my gem, unless these side indicators work because i hate the square ones.oh, i dont know what will fit on a td-tx-tc-whatever |

Yeah, I don't condone racking other people's shit. They paid for it. If you want something, YOU pay for it too.
Besides, I reckon
a) white indicators look shit on 70's cars (except pre-1971 vehicles that received them from new, before orange ones were available)
b) proper oval-shaped Commodore indicators look shit on a Gemini - they don't mix with the era of car. The RB blinkers are more square with really round corners, rather than actually being round. Besides, they fit straight in, which the Commodore ones don't.
Anyway, I don't really give a fuck. But shit, if I ever own a HSV and find somebody stealing something off it, I'll grind their heads into the asphalt until there's nothing left but a stump - and I mean that. |
