O.k. The saga of the headlamp rebuild continues.
I finally managed to figure out a method for repairing/recasting the
plastic internal reflector mounting clips I broke three weeks back
(thanks to those of you who kindly offered replacement clips if needed).
So tonight I start putting everything back together, and in the process
had driver's side headlamp lens crack while re-installing the metal
clips that hold it down on the housing. Lovely. I'm guessing the lens
was already weak since the crack went right through a stone chip in the
lens.
So does anyone have a spare S4 headlamp lens lying around they'd like to
part with? As an alternative, does anyone know the part number for the
Euro lenses (without the fluting in front of the high beam), and where
the best place to order them from is? I've already dropped Alex at
Europrice an email. Any other good sources?
The lenses I have now are Canadian spec which I believe are the same as
the DOT spec lamps in the U.S. with no fluting in front of the low or
fog lights, and only wide vertical fluting in front of the high beam.
The part number on the cracked Driver's side lens I have now appears to
be 301-137-189-08, with DOT, SSB 370, TN-55, and SAE HRF 91 stamped onto
the lens also.
Thanks list!
