    WTB: Headlight

    I have just discovered that some pikey who had my car before me broke the retaining clip for the drivers side dipped headlight bulb and opted to bond the bulb in place. Now that the bulb has blown there's no way it's coming out without destroying the light so I'm looking at having to replace the whole unit ASAP.

    I'm not knowledgeable enough to know exactly what different headlights are out there (I just know they're not all the same) so has anyone got a drivers side prefacelift UK spec headlight (it's the one with the seperate indicator unit). I'd consider a pair if you don't want to split and may even consider other lights if they're a straight fit.

    Didn't realise how widely available they were on eBay until I'd posted here. Picked one up for £20 BIN

    Seemed to be quite a few around the £35-40 mark and this one which was cheaper.

    For future reference...
    If you suffer of any sort internal "mirrors" damage, and you are not scared of disassembly headlight glass from box, then just buy stock Galant light from scrapyard, and replace internals. They are inter-exchangeable.
