Hi all,

I came back to my car and found that my driver side windscreen washer cover was missing. It doesnt seem like anyone had hit the car as it was parked on the street at the time. It looks like someone may have pulled it out. It appears to be only the cover missing. Does anyone know where I can get this from? Aston seem to be selling the unit as a whole for over £200.

Thanks

bf

I've got a spare with a cracked lens I replaced. 2009 DB9. I'm stateside and it's the passenger side (US). If you're interested PM me. I can pop that off and ship it over.

Hi

I had the same problem on my 2010 vantage, appears to be a common problem as my car was under warranty the dealer swapped the whole light unit.
Apparently the plastic becomes brittle and just shears off when the washers are activated, I saw mine shoot off into the bushes as I drove along.

Sorry for the bad news but you could end up needing a new light unit.

Regards

At least you don't have to purchase the entire headlight assembly

Hi all,

sorry made a mistake. It is the passenger side cover that is missing. If anyone has one available please message me. I would prefer not buying the who unit.

Thanks.
