simonblick 0 Posted February 2, 2009 Hi all, ive got a 1989 Corado and need to replace the LH headlamp. Can the new ones fit or do i have to make sure i get an older type. Cheers Simon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CorradoVR6-Turbo 0 Posted February 2, 2009 yes you can interchange later for early and vice versa,its only the surrounds that differ and you can swap these over. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
simonblick 0 Posted February 2, 2009 cheers for the info.. Finding pretty hard to get hold of the late ones as need a LH one for the failure on MOT... Regards Simon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
simonblick 0 Posted February 2, 2009 might have found a late headlamp! However they say the clips from the top have broken, is this going to cause a problem? Cheers Simon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CorradoVR6-Turbo 0 Posted February 2, 2009 yes as it wont be secure and will fail MOT on this. Have you looked through the for sale section on here as there are a few corrados being broken for spares. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
simonblick 0 Posted February 2, 2009 Did have a look! but couldnt see any for sale.. Oh well.. cant seem to find one anywhere.. Regards Simon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carpy25 0 Posted February 2, 2009 whats wrong with yours ? the difference between old and new is the glass lens and the black plastic trim around the lens if your lens and trim are ok and the silvering in gone inside the light then put your len/trim on any good light, the top clip holds the light to the car if its loose it will fail the MOT test Rob Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
simonblick 0 Posted February 2, 2009 Its the silvering inside that has gone on it.. There is a small hole in it which caused it to fill wit water and corroded it. so if i got a good light but clips broken could i make a good one? Regards Simon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carpy25 0 Posted February 2, 2009 not sure but i think the silver piece is also removable swap the good silver into your light with the good clips or repair the broken clip using your old light Rob Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
