Pair of E85 Single Xenon Headlights

Number5

I'm after a pair of E85 headlights that fit the following criteria :
  • Single Xenon (Not Bi-Xenon)
( I need the H7 & sidelight bulb on the inner lens)
  • Probably from a pre-facelift car
  • Orange or clear indicators
  • All rear mounting clips in place
  • No cracks in lenses, but I am happy to renovate if theyre suffering from UV misitng
  • Ideally never split and re-sealed

Just for clarity, for those who aren't sure what they may have:
Bi-Xenons will have a round lens on both lights, where as with single Xenons you'll be able to see the inner main beam and sidelight bulbs.
Bi-Xenons all have a slight Halo effect for the sidelights.
Also, Xenons always came with headlamp washers and no height adjuster next to the headlight switch.
Halogens came with a level adjuster and no headlamp washers, (as far as I'm aware)

Please post or PM me whatever you may have spare and a price you want for them.

Thanks
Alan
 
Might add for further clarity, the pre facelift bi-xenon do not always have the round lens on both lights, my pre facelift lights are bi-xenon and have round lens on the outer and standard H7 on the inner but they are not single xenon, the facelift lights which I have installed to replace them have round lenses on both bulbs but the inner one is a dummy lens.

Thanks. That’s useful to know
It’s just getting even more complicated !
 
I think it's simpler than it appears.

All xenons are termed Bi Xenons on real oem. There is not a single xenon.

The pre facelift have the orange indicators and you can see the bulbs and prism on the inner light. Which are halogens.
The outer xenon bulb is in a circular housing.

On the facelift the both lights are in a circular housing but the inner light is just a dummy.
 
Further to the above. I believe you can get pre facelift with clear indicators on model years 2005 and 2006.

If it has a prism and two bulbs on the inner light it is pre facelift.
 
Possibly it is the term single xenon that is misleading as the pre facelift do have a single xenon bulb but the term bi-xenon means that a single bulb is used as the high and low beams. On the single lens pre facelift headlight there is a cover that partially restricts the xenon bulb, when full beams are put on you can hear this lift up allowing the full unrestricted bulb to be used.
 
Thanks chaps.

What I'm looking to replace, has the Halogen H7 & sidelight bulb on the inner lens and the outer lens is the glass xenon prism type. Originally the car (2004) would have had orange indiicators, but I would prefer to source the facelift clear hockey sticks if possible as the side indicators and third break light are also now clear. Otherwise I'll just go orange and be OEM.

I am aware of a (orange) set on Ebay including the rear lights and he's asking £600 for the lot but wont split. I know these would be the perfect fit but I dont want to buy rear lights that I dont need
