VW T3 Jubilee Joker westy, Double round to square headlights

Post by markemans »

Can I replace my vans double round front headlamps with the newer style square lamps and grill, do they fit in easy?
I think the square ones like of the california looks smarter.

Yes as said above not cheap between £250 and £350, what's wrong with the double round grill except for the missing light.?
Also maestro light have been known to fit the square grill.

The above grill is a replacement, its cheap and plasticky and there is no VW badge sign which i would really like.
also when i see the official grills the inner light (full beam?) looks smaller, so i think i would have to change the
inner lights to a smaller type, so new grill, new inners, why not get the nice square ones i like while im at it ?
any suggestions to places that do the grill.

thanks for the replys folks

mark.

p.s the light is missing because im filing the head of the adjuster screw so it will pass the MOT..... L:-)
