MK1 Head light Info

Post by MRMENDER »

I need minimum at the moment a drivers side inner (Main Beam?) Am I correct In thinking that they are the same as BMW E30 (Early type chrome bumper) I could do with both on the passenger side but at the moment Drivers inner would do. Anybody got any?
They were an advisory on MOT but now im cleaning the car up for UD the drivers side looks bad

Do you know if there is a part / ident No on them as I am cleaning out some lights that were given to me.
Two are about 140 mm dia and two are about 180mm dia.
From memory it says Hella on them, I think.
The man who gave me them said they were off an early golf, can't remember which, and he has preserved them well by painting them.
If you can send me a part no I'll check them out tomorrow at the lockup.

One of my son-in-laws has a Capri in a lock up that I think he has given up on so I can check with him and let you know.

from memory the capri lights and the early bmw lights have slightly different metal locaters and they need shaving off.

the inners are way easier to source than the outers H though, bosch also make them :yup:

I will take a look tomorrow bud, but I'm pretty sure I only have enough for my cars but if your stuck I could lend you one for the show.

I put the E30 head lights in my scirocco along with a set of relays so the switches in the car only turn on the relays and a heavy cable direct from the battery powering the lights them selves, way better than stock lights, took a bit of work getting them in, had to cut the scirocco rings that hold in the lights from the front to get them over the E30 light. :focus:

I'll have a look through what I have tomorrow, Hywel and if I have enough spare, you can choose on Monday.

All Mk 1 Scirocco headlights - inners and outers are approx 5" (approx 140mm); Golf outers are approx 7" (approx 180 mm) so will not fit. Golf inner spots/driving lights MAY fit, depending upon the position of the locating lugs.

Checked numbers you gave me and sorry but no good.
Had a look on ebay last night and it would appear that the ones I have are golf mk1 or 2's.
Sorry I couldn't help.
