Title: Headlight required
Post by: Kieran on 07 September 2014, 19:03:33

Hello all,

The offside headlamp on my Omega has gone all hazy and unfortunately will not polish up no matter what I try to do. Really the only answer is to replace it. So if anyone has a headlamp offside in good condition for sale please contact me. The car is a 2.6 CDX but I think it is the standard lights as on the CD as no washer jets are fitted.

Cheers

Yes you are correct there is a maintenance area with a fix, but mine is to far gone. Spent to much time on it already and it will fail it next MOT because of it.

Mine is a lot worse than the one shown in the maintenance area.

I thought CDX had HID's on them?, if so may have a set of an MV6.

Thanks

Mine is listed as a CDX but seems to miss the nice alloys and headlight washers, which makes me think they are just standard.

Cheers

Will have to check on Monday after night shift but I'm 99% I have a good set, if you only want the lens part and have a hair dryer I could just post the lens to you for some beer tokens :y

Only takes 10 min to change over :y

Thanks that sounds like a plan. Will have to look up how to change the lens but it hopefully is not that difficult. I haven't got a hairdryer, not used one for years ha ha, but my wife has one. A suitable amount of beer tokens will be donated to yourself.

Cheers

I don't mind who supplies the lens cover as long as it doesn't uneccesary inconvenience anyone, but I really require it soon.

Thanks Kieth

I thought that halogen ones have to have the washers fitted. Mine has no washers fitted to the bumper so not sure your ones will be compatible. If they are just a straight fit and require no adjustingI would have them.

HID have washers along with the self leveling. Halogen for lesser models
