F I_I K I bust my headlight
« on: 27 April 2004, 20:45 »
When I got home last night from work I ralised that my near side light lens has been smashed to smitherenes.  

can I just buy a replacement lens or do I need to buy a full new unit?

Not sure what the cost from vw is for a replacement unit, but it might be time to consider a pair of 3rd party black lights!

Mine were only ?160 delivered the next day. I'm pretty sure thats gonna be cheaper than buying a new unit.

Alternatively, give Ebay a try

Rickardo,

I think I've got a spare complete n/s headlamp available from my 2000 GTI (undamaged & includes all bulbs etc) - yours for ?50 inc UK P&P if you are interested.

Please drop me an email to golfstuff@tiscali.co.uk to discuss further.

Cheers

Chris

Richardo - Can confirm Chris is very safe to but off (I bought his o/s one off him a few weeks back) all packed well and in top condition - thanks again Chris. Bugga to do too as front bumper has to come off.
