Headlight stone damage

[JB052]

I have a very neat and tidy hole in the off side headlight glass of my 1992 car.

Is my best option to replace the complete unit or is there an option just to replace the glass?

You can take the glass unit out of the surrounds and replace it. I had similar and put Cibe reflectors in. A straight swap.

Thanks GBM, I like the sound of that. Can you recall where you got the Cibie units from?

[JB052]

Found some at Demon Tweaks.

That's good as I can't find the receipt. Thought they couldn't be any worse.

Thanks for the link, I had seen the Crystal ones, I'm just not sure if they look quite right on a 1992 car although they are a lot better value.

Might be useful. A Cibie user on the 2nd page. Others trying other reflectors.

Interesting read thank you,

think I will stay with the Cibie units as that's what the current units are..
