So I've searched out these inner headlights for a MK1 GTI and Parts4Euro.com has the lights. They're close....but...tThe adjuster tabs are not quite in the right spot to be a drop in replacement. And since I have found no one that sells an exact replacement headlight, I think I may order a set of these (with halos!!!) and drill out into my SA bracket where the new adjuster hole needs to be. That way, If I ever need another headlight lens, it seems the old MK1 GTI headlights will be available, at least more so than the currently unavailable SA 5 3/4" headlight lens. Has anyone replaced the inner headlight lens only and what did you use!?! |
