Title: Headlights
Post by: dave-b on 17 January 2009, 19:24:53
I' looking for a replacement o/s headlamp for my '01 3.0 elite as the current one is full of condensation and the levelling motor has packed up.
Can anyone tell if the pre facelift lights are the same as the later ones as these seem more plentiful, or has anyone got later type available ?

Head lights are different.
I can have a look down Pimhole if you like.

aslong as they're not self leveling then yes, the later adjusters seem to break anyway so earlier ones are better if you can get them :y

It's an Elite, so I reckon it'll have self levelling lights! :y

It is indeed an Elite (wih self levelling xenons) & I would gladly collect from Bury if the price is agreeable  :y
