wrightster Posted April 9, 2003 Share Posted April 9, 2003 on sunday at 3 sisters i noticed a few westys with quite small black headlights on them any ideas on how much these are and how easy they are to fit ? BTW to me they looked a lot smaller than the standard headlights .. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Grilli Posted April 9, 2003 Share Posted April 9, 2003 The original std headlamps used to be 7" sealed beam units (same lamps as from a mini). The current lamps are 5 3/4" and look the same, just smaller. I recently got a pair of these from Stafford Vehicle Components - £95 a pair I think - which is about what Westfield charge for them EACH!

wrightster Posted April 9, 2003 Author Share Posted April 9, 2003 Thanks Ray, i am not 100% sure but i think that they may have been even smaller than that but as usual i may be wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatman Posted April 9, 2003 Share Posted April 9, 2003 I've just swapped from 7" headlights to the 5 3/4" headlights on my sprint car.........Spot the difference......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bananaman Posted April 9, 2003 Share Posted April 9, 2003 Hi Monkey boy There were a couple cars running very small hedlights 3-4" I think that these are Motorbike lights. Not sure how these work with regards MOT etc.... I heard that there may be a problem with dip/main beam? They do look good though. Mines got 5 3/4" see below.

wrightster Posted April 9, 2003 Author Share Posted April 9, 2003 Shouldnt talk to you really (after your remark about scousers) Yeah they did look about 3-4" quite neat i thought (good point about the legalities though) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
machin Posted April 9, 2003 Share Posted April 9, 2003 Banana man, -What are the shell's for your headlights made from? I'm sure that I've seen some plastic ones on some of the Westfield promotional pictures for the 1800 Speed Sport from a few years ago? -Basically I want some small plastic ones! Anyone got a clue where to get them (I looked on SVC but couldn't find any plastic ones........) Machin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bananaman Posted April 9, 2003 Share Posted April 9, 2003 Shouldnt talk to you really (after your remark about scousers) Twas only a bit of humor, I thought you Scouser were up very humorus people, you'd have to be to...............(no I'll stop there ) Banana man, -What are the shell's for your headlights made from? Metal I think, Carbon fiber would be nice . Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
