auxiliary headlights 350i
Discussion
I had a little pitch, the glasses of the auxiliary headlights of my 350i was damaged. Does anybody know from which car the auxiliary headlights come, where can I get new ones? Is it Bosch, Lucas, Hella or other producer, I cannot see any name on it? In principle, any light wood work, but it must fit into the recess in the GFK-Bumper.
Thanks in advance

Just to keep this all on the same thread I copied my reply to here
They are Cibie airport 35 Click on the link then click "Airport" you should see a picture of what you need. Now all you have to do is find where to get them in Germany. You can buy replacement glass/lens but the age/condition of the reflector might mean you want to replace it all.
Udo you should come to England this weekend, we have a meeting(BBWF) where more than 100 Wedges gather. People travel from Scotland, Holland, and even Wales (wherever that is). I'll buy you a beer or two if you make it

Oh, thank you Leo for invitation to a beer. Now I understand what BBWF means. Where is it in GB? And how often? Is it necessary to announce, or can everbody come? It sounds very enticing to meet 100 wedges, it must be a great event. I have to decide tomorrow or Friday, have to check it with my family and so on. And there is the Problem: I have never used to drive on the left side of the street. I have been in London this spring, but I did not have to drive myselve. I have never been in England with my own car. I will see what I do??!! Perhaps I will inform my German TVR-Friends in the Forum of TVRCarClubMain if somebody wants to go to England too. But unfortunately there are only a few wedges in Germany. More Tuscans, Cerberas and Chimaeras. But it is a wedge-event. So, I consider what to do. But at first I have to care about my headlamps. Thanks for the tip, now I have to find a German dealer for Cibie-Products. I never heard about this label befor, it will be not easy to find it here.
Thanks a lot for tip and beer-invitation, perhaps till Weekend

Udo BBWF06 is here. It is a free event, the more wedges the better! Other TVR's are tolerated too!
If you can come then the problem is finding somewhere to stay as the hotel is fully booked, but it should be possible to find a hotel within 15km or so.
Driving on the other side is not so difficult, just follow the car in front, stop for coffee when you get tired and watch out for the crazy Dutch, their wheels spin very much
BBWF happens once a year (this is to be the third one) so if you can't make this one then there is no excuse for next year! Roll on BBWF07.

Compliments on your English Udo it improves quickly
Hallo together,
I informed the German TVR-Friends via the German Forum about BBWF and asked if anybody would drive to this event. They answered me, that at the same weekend is the Back Home event in Blackpool. Is this information correct? And why are two such big TVR-events at the same time? They answered that it would be the last possibility to visit the old TVR-plant. Now I am a little bit irritated, what I shall do.

Forget back home, if you have a Wedge, BBWF is the place to be this weekend 
Fly over fri / sat and hire a car this side, drive to Ettington Chase,meet 100 + Wedge owners + 90 Wedges drink beer, sleep in the car, drive back to the airport, fly home and reflect back on a wonderful wedgeful weekend - well what you can remember in a beer haze 
Oh yes I forgot to mention you will probably be able to get some new auxilary headlamps sorted as well
