Hi guys,

I am after a replacement headlight, same type as the pictures below as the one in the picture is perfectly fine to use but has had some damage and personally think its beyond my capabilities to fix this, if even possible.
I had used to Autogylm headlight restorer and as amazing as it is, I know the damage is there, its visible and it will bug the hell out of me.

First two pictures are before the restoration and obviously, the last two are after the restoration.
As you can see, the large scratch and scruffs have been removed but the lens inside is cracked, a repair kit has been used for the brackets and there is flaking in the corners

So, I am looking for a replacement and when this finally comes, I will be selling the headlight in the picture. Not really sure if any one would be interested but happy to discuss.

Thanks
Pri

How much would you be looking for it?

My headlight leveller is playing up on my drivers side headlamp, so probably need another unit. I'll be cutting it up anyway as my inners are colour coded to my bodywork, rather than chrome, so the crack doesn't matter to me.

Ben do you mean the leveling motor is playing up?if so it's available from the dealers at circa £25. Few screws to fit it iirc.

It's definitely something to do with the leveling of the headlight as the left one goes down and then back up on start-up, whereas the drivers side goes down and doesn't come back up.

It did the same thing about a year ago for about a month and then suddenly it started working fine again.

I never knew you couly buy the motor separately, so if it's cheap i'll just buy that and then see what happens.

I have halogens, if that makes any difference?

I'm pretty sure it's the same motor for the leveling whether it's xenon/halogen.
Even if it's a different part, I do know you can buy it for both for the same sort of money
