Fitting Headlights

Recommended Posts

Will 1990 headlights from a 1.8 16v Corrado fit into a 1992 16v 2.0 Corrado?

 

If someone could get back to me asap that would be great (seen replacement lights on eBay and auction ends in 2 hours!)

 

Cheers folks,

you need the 1992 lense and plastic surround, or the grille won't line up flush as the later lenses stick out a little further.

Thought so. Sh*t.

 

It's the lens' I'm trying to replace really. Mine are smoked (painted glass type probably done by the previous owner) and I want to swap them for clear ones, brighten things up a little on the road. Was hoping I could swap my 92 HL's for 90's instead. Previous owner also installed HID's which go through the bulb covers on the back of the headlights, he done a bad job. Want to strip the HID's out and replace them with Super bright bulbs instead. Bring the front end back to it's stock format. Sealed and tight.

 

Know anyone who has any clear lens' for sale/swap?

Cheapest I've found is 30 quid each - I can get S/H complete lamps for less!

Paint thinner in my lens perhaps to remove the smoke?
