Title: Hella Projectors
Post by: TwistedHumour on January 25, 2007, 04:45:27 PM
Does anyone know of a UK supplier for hella projectors?  I\'m after the complete unit as opposed to the bulb.  It\'s 90mm... i think - 99% sure anyway.

I\'d prefer to get it from the UK, but if I cant then I know of one US dealer that can supply it - albeit with a \'short\' delay.

Cheers guys
Chris

Think you\'ll find that you will save money by ordering from the states too....... I\'ve saved a bundle over the years!!!

Thanks very much.

I\'ve got a cracked/broken 90mm main beam :(  I\'ve decided to stick with my current setup until a day when I can afford the re-am ones.

I want to change the other projectors to E marked ones and use better bulbs.  I\'m not good with electronics, but I think if I uprate them then it’s a good idea to put in a resistor (is this right?).  I\'ll get an auto electrician to do that bit for me!

I know we spoke about adding a shrowd, but its the smaller units that need modding.  When I looked at them they looked so different to the ones on the guide that I really didnt want to attempt it.

Btw, MOT is no longer an issue - I\'ve got a pass booked in for tomorrow ;)

Mark - will do!
