davidwort 0 Posted April 5, 2005 Hi all can anyone tell me the best place to get a new headlight ,my lense is ok but the reflector is way past its sell by date :( \need it soon as its dreaded MOT time.. Cheers 8) my last one (1990 16v so early style) was 110 quid from VAG dealer a couple of years back(same price as GPC at the time) , the one before that was 175 quid about 6 years ago, I found out shortly after I bought the last one that if you can get parts club discount (which the CCGB would have got me at the time, doh!) the early complete lights were about 65 quid from a dealer! even if you have a late car, the reflector is the same just swap over your lense and trim, the late style ones were much more expensive last ime I checked.
