Was planning on replacing the front headlights as part of front end respray, thinking that it would be a relatively inexpensive job.

But was quoted over £320 just for replacement headlamp unit, adjustors and lenses. Does that sound right or can I get cheaper parts elsewhere.

Labour was about 3 hours as I understand its quite a fiddly job.

Thanks

Hi

Where are you getting your front-end respray and have you been given a cost?

I've got a quote from Bee Gee Coachcraft of around £600 which is a bit more than usual I think due to the fact that I have a few cracks at the front.

Gary has just done a respray of the back and did a really good job so I would recommend him.

You are right eek but was trying to keep the cost down and the doors are in pretty good shape so I might hold off for the time being, but its on the list.........!!
