Honeycombs were also 2 piece, they had metal threads imbedded in the plastic which were held on to the car by nuts through holes drilled into the boot. Available only of GTs and Fairmonts in XA and XB. I'm not sure if the XC had honeycombs on the Fairmo

XA Coupe Tail lights, left and right are identical which should be cheaper to tool up. I have a couple of decent ones if you want to borrow/buy for measurments.

I also believe that the Luxury models has a different style of trim again.

the fixed rear side window rubbers for a xy/xw wagon are imposibile to get you can get every other rubber for the wagon but these 2 makes life hard if there is rust in the window frame and the window has to come out.
