Post by big_timer on Jan 22^nd, 2009, 8:27am

hiya lads
i had an accident yesterday resulting in my nearside headlight being smashed.i am wondering whether you can change the glass lens or do you have to replace the whole unit.its a pre facelift model.also does anyone out there have a spare n/s headlight for sale?

hi there

yes, you can just change the lens part, but it's easier to change it with the headlight removed from the car.

3 bolts. 2 on top and one you get to through the fog light hole in the bumper.

hth

btw, post an ad in the wanted section. ;)

You can change the glass without removing the whole thing - just need a long flat blade screwdriver or similar. Takes about 5-10 mins and the usual contributions to the swearbox ;)
