T11 headlights

[g.miller]

Hi
do\'es any one know where i can get  a new set of glass lens for my 91 T11? the silver inside mine has disingrated.
Mazda want £150 for the pair. i have seen some halo type advertised on e-bay in the usa but i don\'t think they would be suitable for a rhd car not unless anyone knows different?

i\'m breaking my FC atm, give me an offer

[Brett]

If FC3Sleo cant help then the Ebay.com is a great help. DOnt go for the angel eye ones though, go for the ones which have uprated bulbs and crystal reflectors.  I paid £38 delivered for a pair with bulbs.

[g.miller]

Thanks FC3Sleo if yours are from a uk car and perfect i would be interested?

Brett
thanks for the info if i can get a pair for the sort of money that would be great. do you remember the name of the company? there is a company on ebay called ixtab imports selling crystal clear Hid headlights sealed beam [ but you can change the bulbs]? thanks again guys Grant

[FC3Sleo]

Hi Brett - when you used these did you have to realign the headlight beams or where a simple drop in job?

Just a drop in job, minor adjustment needed come MOT time, but then the car had been sat for 5years at that point so who knows if it was the lights or not!

Why do you say Dont go for the Halo lights? i sent the company selling these in the usa an e-mail and they replyed that they have sold to the uk and the cars passed  the mot OK. they seem to be the same as crystal clear but with an outer ring.
i sent an e-mail to the company selling the crystal clear lights in the UK and they have not responded and as i have never bought from e-bay before i feel that if they can\'t be bothered to reply will they be bothered when they get my money??? Grant

[grinder]

i hate ebay for companies not replying - really annoys me - if you are selling summat - reply to queries

and if it went wrong - would they just ignore you ??

if you do get the halo ones - i need pics of it in the dark

[g.miller]

will do Grinder, prob. going to order tomorrow not unless i get any neg. feed back

Tony, sorry for the late reply, you can come pick up the bits anytime mate, theres one thing not available tho, the coilovers, i\'ve only got the fronts atm, the rears are still at the shop where i\'m getting them rebuild, and i haven\'t got any spare money to get them back yet. sorry about this.

get one of those mate.... Looks really good and doesnt cost much.

Had to wait for 2 weeks for them to arrive but it was worth it.

hi youall
ive got the cotton picking lights from the old US of A and i have to agree with Brett that the halo[angle eyes] are not that good, they do not have a bright ring around the outside just a blue hase,  :eek   however the main lights are much brighter than standard and the white bulbs that came with them are brilliant. :2eek  the lot cost £52 inc. p&p  and bulbs and came in a week. :Thumbsup!
PS dont buy the eight 4mm  lamp retaining screws from Mazda £12 for 8 when i found out the price i got 10 for 25p from the hardware shop :Grrr

Now i can drive all the way to the petrol station at night :driving I once drove past one :flamed
Grant :WaveBye
NB Stu. if you want a pic. i can take one[no problemo] but after i tried the angle eyes, i did not hard wire them in. but the Glass lights look neat.

[Brett]

LoL! I said no to the angel ones \'cos I think they look w*nk :rollin
