hella twin headlight spares
« on: 19 December 2009, 11:35 »
any one know where to get spares from for the mk3 hella twin headlight set up????

as i need a new light in one of mine,

i have been on the hella website, but i cant seem to make sense out of it.

i just thought some of you guys with them fitted might have a uk source for spares???

cheers in advance

you'd be very lucky.... I tried getting spares for my DRL's after a clip went AWOL and they were shockingly bad and very very rude

you could try ringing Hella direct in Banbury but I fear that you might be wasting your breath - I fabricated my own clip in the end  :angry:

or you could possibly try Thames Valley Electro Diesel in Reading as they are a premier Hella distributor - they are always helpful when i have spoken to them

What light and are they smoked or clear?
Golf MK3 1.8 auto and I didn't pay a grand for the "priveledge" :grin:, auto windows all round and a AC. Oh and I've got a luggage net you pricks!

Does that make my willy look bigger?

Oh yeah it's called Helda or something....

Shame because I've got a spare but it's a clear one, not smoked.

Does it have a black crosshair inside the lense?

If it does they're smoked.

Yeah.

Heard Hella still sell spares but don't know the truth's extent on that one.
