Has anyone got
« on: 18 November 2015, 08:23:03 pm »
Hi guys/girls


Has anyone got an old set of boxeye headlights damaged or anything they dont need that i could have/buy the left side reflector out of?


Mines got a piece missing and im worried it will cause an MOT failure.


Ill gladly pay for it or the postage.


Cheers

You're not on about the shroud thingy that covers the bulb are you?

Ermm i dunno i just mean the silver reflector thats in the actual headlights they are all the way around the bulbs though the thing that gives the bulbs their pattern. I dont know their name i just call them reflectors haha.

Okay, probably not then.
On the left side there's a metal object that looks a bit like something you'd find on top of a wine/champagne bottle, which is not worth a shite.
They generally break sooner or later and just need removing via the right bulb hole, as they normally start annoyingly vibrating.

I've got what you need.  I bought a smashed up headlight and removed the reflectors with the idea of modifying them as a headlight upgrade.  Didn't get any further and have upgraded to a Foxeye, so don't need them any more.

One of the lugs on the right side is broken, but the left is OK.  Small amount of crazing on the relflector, but I've never seen one without it.

Send me a PM, make me an offer...
