    Default Headlight repair?

    Hey,
    My Xenon headlights have broken clips and instead of keep looking for a replacement does anyone know if it's fixable? And how?

    The headlights cost loads and the stealers really want my hard earned.

    Thanks

    There's a repair kit available from Vx that lets you attach new lugs on. I've got some Xenons arriving soon that I bought from a member here on eBay which have a couple of lugs broken (which I knew about) so I'll be getting the repair kit. What I need to check is how many lugs are in the kit as EPC seems to be indicating that there are 16 in each kit! - so not sure on price and something I need to check with the dealer.

    Part number is 93173073. If the kit is a tad expensive then I'd be willing to split/share it with you.

    I saw those for sale which then gave me the idea that you must be able to repair the light. Very nice offer there Duncan - let me know

    Right, got round to ringing up about this and it seems that there are three in each pack (from what they could tell) - price is about £17. They couldn't tell me if the repair lugs in the pack are all the same or if they are specific to each lug on the lamp - if you see what I mean. So I've ordered one kit for now, hoping that the lugs will be usable on both units, and will post up once I get the kit on Friday with more info.

    Part number is in my earlier post (#4) - I'll post up when I get the pack to let you know what comes in it.
