standard headlights

[novaexplod]

is it possible to get into a nova headlamp to replace the reflector? as one of mine is rusty so it aint doing too much reflecting. i didnt think u could but i wanted to ask before i go n buy a new lamp because i have a spare lamp with an electrical fault and wondered if i cud swap the reflectors over?

The actual headlamp isn't electrical, only the associated wiring and bulb, so I can't see why you can't put your spare on..

I think they're glued into the glass front.

If you end up replacing the whole lot beware of cheap imitations on ebay. The fit is crap.

Yeah they're sealed with some nasty gloop. Best bet is to look for a complete replacement unit. I have a feeling Sel Imperial do headlights but i'm not sure how good they'd be....

thats where i was thinking of getting them from but i was unsure on the quality although ive had replacement panels from them before and they fit quite well so whether the lamps are as good quality i dont know??

DO NOT BUY FROM SEL.

Sorry for the caps. The headlights they sent me were crap... i threw them straight in the bin as they wont do refunds.

Try and get Valeo headlights from ebay.
