200tdi headlights

sorry another from me!!

We all know the first discos were made mostly of bits and pieces found in the rover parts bins, bits of sherpas and montegos or something?!?

I need a couple of replacement healdlamp units, the reflectors are getting a bit rusty and dull.  Its hard to find discos in scrap yards as they are too valuable to be scrapped mostly, is it possible to find 1990 headlight units in any other more likely to be scrapped vehicles??

failing this anyone got any good quality ones for sale or know of somewher I can get cheap new ones??

I bought a couple of e,bay for my mot.Then I went on the Paddocks website I think they are about £28 plus vat .So if you buy two over the internet it passes the £50 mark and postage is free You get second hand from e,bay its not worth the effort as you cant garuantee the state of them.And its no cheaper

True, also the new ones I had came with new plastic clips and adjuster screws too

Not every problem can be solved with duct tape, and it's exactly for those situations we have WD 40

If you buy some without the adjusters then you can get them off e-blag from a place called Island 4x4, £4.50 per side including postage (it might be worth looking to see if they also do lights), everything we've ordered from them has come next day delivery. We tried to get some locally but our nearest suplier wanted £32 for the same thing :shock:
