Wanted: Lens for 5 3/4" headlight

I managed to smash my headlamp on the way to my MOT today - luckily my man is friendly and passed it in the proviso I sort it ASAP! Does anyone have a spare lens for a 5 3/4" headlight (Hella) or know where I can get one? Many thanks.

Edited to change to 5 3/4"

Have you tried SVC? if not, could be worth a phone call

5 1/2"? or 5 3/4"?

try here, might be a little cheaper than others.

I have done the same - just much less close to IVA

Would be glad to hear where you get one from in the end

Yes, sorry it is 5 3/4" (the standard smaller sized headlight for 7s).

I got my replacements from AllParts.

I bought my original lenses at Stonleigh years ago, but when I tried to set them up
last year I could not ......

Turned out that the 'Chinese copies' that I bought were rubbish.

The ones I bought from Allparts were in a different league - I could tell the Chinese
ones were 'copied' from ones like them.

The bulb orientation was not good and the definition of the lenses was very poor in comparison.





The Answer for everything, but never the last word....
