got it ta.

can we clarify exactly what parts we are looking at on the headlight.

we looked at a pair of headlights over the weekend. One had a loose reflecter flapping around in the light so would not respond to adjustment.

Are we talking about parts inside the headlight that locate the reflecter? or replacing the nylon cogs on the back that engage the allen key bar that you turn to adjust the beam?

Its the black plastic adjuster inside the headlight, it holds the main beam side at the top inside the unit. Does that make sence? Might be best to take the main plastic lense/cover off first before you deliver it?

sounds like we need an ortopsy on an older unit, is the main lense glued on?

Slight complication my end is i have an insurance assessor comming to look at my  headlight at the end of the week, hopefully he will agree a new unit as mine is misting up after a repair.

Fingers crossed then

Its stuck on with some sort of compound, I got mine off with a hair dryer.

Yeh, not to difficult to dis-assemble thankfuly.

[TheBoy]

I dropped a pair down to Kevin Wood.  One seems ok, other seems to be loose on the main beam part, so presumably thats the fault we're looking at?

Might be a while before Kevin Wood gets time to relay them onwards, as I suspect he wants to get his garaged emptied of my car first

Hi, I'm the guy Dave Elite has been talking to about making these parts.

I wanted a complete unit as its much easier to see if it's possible to simplify the shape of the component without limiting its use if I can see how its mounted. Being able to do this means that I can machine them more quickly and hence make them more cheaply. It may be that the component that you are discussing is already very simple, but as I've never seen one I can't really comment! If it's anything like the angel eye e39 BMW one then it's much more complicated than it needs to be. You can see these on eBay (item no. 250584102205).

I work with Marribo, and reading this thread it looks like some one who lives close to him can donate a complete unit, that would be great and we can return it with fixed adjusters.

There is no rush as I am of to New Zealand on Thursday and won't be back until Easter, so if you could ge the unit to Marribo by then I'll start as soon as I return.

Thanks

as discussed via pm with Mark and Marribo, my previous offer to swap my headlight out as a doner has hit a snag in that the insurance assesser needs to see it which wont be this week, plus its not broken.

I fully intended to offer to deliver The Boys head light to Tadley but in the course of last weekends efforts to lpg his car...i forgot all about it in all honesty.

I guess i'll pop over to Kevins this weekend and relieve him dealing with head lights as well if nothing else, he's got more than enough on at the momment, although i have forwarded Maribo's details in case a delivery opertunity arises un the mean time.

In shory though, i cant see us getting a head light to you before the weekend at the earliest.

Has anyone managed to get a headlight to this fella? I can send one to him a good headlight if not
