Default Ford Xmas lights

Well I am always after something a bit different for xmas so long as the cost isnt exorbident. I found these http://www.blowbyracing.com/folochtrli.html. yes the lights are cheap and I will try getting them via an onforwarder ( ideas please) and I think I will need a stepdown transformer, $40. So all up about $100 I guess. If any of this is wrong can you advise please. And yes it sounds silly but thats me.

looks like they are covers that clip onto lights, so you can put them on any lights that fit, no need for a transformer.

No, I got an email today and they are actually lights but yes the emblems just clip on. They mail UPS to Australia but are waiting for new stock to arrive. I have said I will take two sets when they arrive and I will seek out a reasonably priced stepdown transformer. Cant wait for the Holden lovers coming to ours for xmas now.
Even funnier will be the look on the missus face when she sees them.
