Front head lamp glass
Hi
I have just noticed that the near side front head light glass on our 1991 LWB 463 is missing, the lamp is intact and so is the rubber.
Could someone please help on weather or not you can buy just the glass or the whole unit and if so where is the best place to get one?
Also our internal heater blower barring is making a lot of noise, is there away to tighten / replace the barring thought the air intake under the bonnet or do you have to take the whole dash out? If so where is the best place to get a replacement unit?
Thanks
Hamish
Sounds like you've got the same problem as me regarding the headlights.......

As you'll note, there doesn't seem to be a source of just the lens; I've ended up ordering new headlamp unit from Guido at Industry Tools (www.industrytools.de) in Germany. Guido is really helpful!
or you could send gav helme a PM will be a better price for sure
Just looked these up for Mr Goat and Mish
G500 and G300 both list A001 820 54 61 for the lamp @ £66.50 + vat each UK
G300 interestingly still lists A000 826 98 99 for the lens @ £51.50 + vat each Germany
Later pre Xenon style also available @ £106 + vat each (you need to replace both- but much better in theory)
PM me if you need help
Off to sharpen my pencil...

Are the clear-lens types the ones with internal ellipsoid projector lens? if so, should be a whole lot better than the H4s
Don't know what you just said
But they are clear and 200% better
I'll have to consider upgrading, then.
