Hi everyone.
I'm looking for a good indie in chesterfield/ north derbyshire.
I intend to replace headlight units on my 04 zed due to the ubiquitous condensation/ fogging.
Anyone know of a good reliable indie.
Many thanks in advance and stay safe.

I’ve always used Hughes Brothers in Derby and they’ve been good....might be a bit far from you though!

Thanks guys- appreciate your help. I did hear of a guy in Duckmanton on the road to Bolsover but can't trace him.

When I had my E85 I used a Forum member called Andy Fanshawe. He is based in Chesterfield. He was excellent and charges were very reasonable. Not sure if he is still operating but his mobile number is 07833 967239. Email is [email protected]. He had a lot of posts on the Forum when he was restoring a roadster.

Changing headlights is an easy DIY job by the way.
