Square Headlight adjuster screws and clips

Post by bitler1@gmail.com »

Hi,

Does anyone know where I can get a set of adjuster screws and clips for some T25 square headlights? I bought some 2nd hand RHD lights off ebay and the clips are all shot. The ones on my current LHD headlights will snap if I try to remove them!

Any ideas would be really appreciated!

Cheers,
Phil

I am pretty sure all the clips are now NLA

http://partmaster.com.ua/?action=catalo ... 0%BA%D0%B0

From that I think you need the following parts

255-941-133 x2
255-941-133A x2
255-941-141B x4
244-841-141C x2
191-941-297 x2

The only one that seems to be still available from germany is 191-941-297

Hi Aidan, how much would the complete set for both lights set me back?

I priced some from a German trader at last years Dubfreeze, he wanted £16 for a set of adjusters which did one pair of lamps, so 2 sets would be £32, if you can still get hold of them.

I improvised with a set of lamps I bought by using 6mm set screws/washers and nylock nuts.

Have you asked VW?
