No
Only way to get a complete set of original VW adjusters for square lights is to buy the backing plates as they come with adjusters.But they will set you back £140 from classic parts either via brickwerks or Heritage
brickwerks do sell the backing plate for electrical adjusted lights but the missing adjuster needed to complete a manual set seems to be obsolete now (255-941-133)
So to recap a full set of adjusters is
Rectangle Headlight Units
2x 255-941-133 - seemingly obsolete even from classic...........though 2 available on ebay for a song Get ripped off here
2x 255-941-141C - available Here or Here
2x 191-941-297 - availablehere or here
Square main beam units
2x 255-941-133A - obsolete
4x 255-941-141B - obsolete
ONLY alternative workaround adjusters available (from a MK2 Golf) here
If the clipnuts around the round head of the adjusting screws have broken they are part number 7L0945299.....try VW

Nice one Cruz. Mine headlight adjusters are fubar'd and are held together with cable ties.
Just ordered a set.
Thanks

Re: Square inner headlight adjusters - workable solution
I have gone down the route of a 13mm bolt washers X3 nuts to hold the outer, its a pain to adjust but once its done its not going anywhere!

Re: Square inner headlight adjusters - workable solution
I have just bought some adjusting screws on eBay from Eurowagens (http://www.eurowagens.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;) where they are advertised as suitable for "VW Golf MK1, MK2 and Transporter T25" for £5.99. Part No.: 10213983.
They are an exact match (with the exception of the screw being slotted as opposed to cross-head) for my 1990 1915cc petrol T25.

Re: Square inner headlight adjusters - workable solution
Hey guys, there seems to be allot of focus on the square main beam lens, what about the rectangular ones?
Am i right in thinking this is what we know about replacing all the head light adjusters for the square and rectangular lenses on both sides:
Part no's
4x (VW T25) 255-941-141B = 191-941-133 (mk2 Golf)
2x (Vw T25) 255-941-133A = 191-941-141 (mk2 Golf)
2x (vw T25) 255-941-133 = ???
2x (vw T25) 255-941-141c = ???
2x (vw T25) 191-941-297 = ???
Also non of the ebay or eurowagon links seem to work?
