i just renewed the headlight reflectors on my cerbera and just out of interest i can now see where im going. the reflectors are from a scania truck and if anyone wants the lucas part number email me it may save a few quid to spend on another problem

Do you think the new reflectors are a significant improvement? Mine's in for a service next week, and one of the things I'm gonna get done is to remove the lenses, clean out all the cr@P which has built up behind the glass, and then have them re-sealed (the lenses currently sit at slightly different angles). I agree the lights are pretty poor now, and so if you think it's worthwhile I may have the reflectors replaced at the same time.

Cheers,

Neil

the reflectors on mine were dull so yes it did make a big difference. i was quoted £57.00 for reflectors from a TVR agent.

Anyone know what the Lucas part number is and if its cheaper than TVR parts?

Also is it easy to remove the lenses and re-seal them (what type of sealer and how do you get them back in the correct position)?

I done this myself but also fitted the www.MODWISE.COM brighter lights option, relays direct to the battery and the Phillips vision plus bulbs and that made a huge difference, well worth the money especially at this time of year.
