Subject:      South African inner headlight resources

Hello Vanafans!! OK, right now I'm looking to add some kick ass halo
lighting to my existing SA Grille lights. The 7" rounds are no problem
since the lens are pretty standard and lots of options for different Halo
makers. (Big price difference between Octane lighting and Oracle
lighting). Anyway, The 5 3/4" inner headlights are the problem. And it
also raised the question of replacing them in general. I have already had
to order a new inner from GW since my original SA inner light has failed
and corroded inside the lens. These lens come with special tabs (headlight
adjustment tabs) welded to the back edge of the lens. No one seems to make
a lens with these tabs. So when all of you start to experience failures
with these lens over time, what are we gonna do??? I can only assume that
either Hella still makes them (or not), and GW and BD, etc. will
eventually run out of replacements. Are we all screwed at that point!?!?
