Is the car a Facelift or Mini-Facelift one. I've got one if it's a Mini-Facelift you want.

Is the intact adjuster from my existing unit easily transferable to replace the broken one?

Yep, Light out, remove bulbs & covers, ballast & motor. Stick in the oven @ about 100deg for 5 minutes or so.....split lens from body.....swap out adjuster

But if you're going to do all that you may as well fit the aluminium ones ;)

Similar to lazytinker I am a lazy tinker so will look for one with adjuster intact.
Sorry tunnie and thanks.

Thanks alf but I will hold out for perfect condition. Am being picky because I got a 2nd hand calliper which turned out to be worse than my original, so lesson learnt.
Thanks all the same

Think I will head down that route. I seem to be treating the car at the moment so why not. Still, if anybody has one I will consider depending on condition.
