Headlamps again
« on: November 20, 2005, 02:52:44 PM »

You may remember me posting about my Grand Cherokee lights problem, well I'm getting nowhere, I need the plastic clips fitted to the headlamps and the main dealer tells me that I have to buy the complete headlamps (£500)  :shock:  the ones I've seen in the breakers also have broken clips, at the moment she's stuck on the drive because you can't fit the lights without the clips. Does anyone know where I might be able to either get them or at least know a cheaper supplier for headlamps.
Pleeeeeeeeeezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzeeeeeeeeee

Try http://http://www.247spares.co.uk

I've used the site before - very efficient.  Put in your details and what you're after and it gets sent to hundreds of parts dealers all over the country.  If someone has what you need they phone right away (usually within half an hour). Everytime I've used it I've got what I need the next day, cheap as chips too.

Cheers I'll give them a try but to be honest everytime I've asked about the clips, they were either missing or already broke.

Thanks again, well I'm back on the road with a combination of tie-wraps and the clips from you, unfortunately I think that once the headlights have neen removed the the clips stretch that little to much to be 100% effective.
I have managed to source some from the US and hope they arrive before my  MOT in 2 weeks time. I have had to order 20 of them so if you ever need any you know where to look   :roll:

Nah not yet, I've got a full set of clear lenses to fit as well so decided to wait till the clips arrive from the US and do it all in one go  :)
