Headlight replacement

[kit]

Does any one know why these are so much cheaper than all the other replacements I have seen?

That does look stupidly cheap to me!!

Well it is listed as a direct replacement and Lucas are a quality brand, these round headlamp units were pretty universal at one time ie: MGBGT, Jaguar XJ series outters etc etc...I think you will be looking at a universal part used on many vehicles and as such cheaper than a supplier listing it JUST for a T25. Two choices, if it doesn't fit then send it back but generally I find EuroCarParts pretty good at getting things right.

It does say it's made by Hella, looks like its a Lucas boxed part very good price if it is.

Says weight is 0.404kg... I'm sure it should be more than that

The Lucas headlight switch - three settings, dim, flicker, and off.

They don't fit anyway, they do not have the "Beazale" (sp?) that is fixed to the existing ones.

Did you buy one to find out then?

Somebody did they went out of stock soon after.

Got a picture of it Kit? VW didn't sell it with all the mounting bracket just the light unit with the three mounting lugs.

Well don't give up on them just yet, lets have a pic of one alongside a regular one. Nothing is impossible on here

I took therm back and got one from GSF, the other one I put the hot air gun on and dried it out.
