VW Electrics Standard Headlights

Square Headlights

Inner main beam lights are The same as a MKII Scrirocco They are becoming hard to source and are no longer available from dealers. The Hella part numbers for RHD are LEFT 301-127 761-01 RIGHT 301-127 760-01 This is etched into the glass. The Adjusters are hard plastic and are very difficult to remove without snapping I have found it is best to remove the entire headlight unit to get to the rear plastic retaining lugs and rotate them by 90 degrees to remove all at the same time. The two upper ones are adjustable and the lower one is fixed (The Scrirocco screws are shorter and probably not suitable but some of the plastic clips are interchangeable). If you have condensation in your lamp I managed to remove it by removing all the plastic parts and oven baking for 10-20 minutes at 100degrees, take it out and shake it to disperse the droplets and aid evaporation. There is a fix which involves using a bag of silica gel attached to a piece of fishing line or dental floss popping it in then refitting the bulb and leaving it in till the moisture is absorbed. The string is used tea bag style to retrieve the bag when done. It would save you having to remove the plastic clips which are likely to snap. When refitting clean up the threads of the adjusters as best you can with scribe or small wire brush and coat with copper grease so adjustments can be made easily without the rust on the screws binding and ending up with chewed screw heads, it sees a lot of weather in its position and any rust prevention you spend time on will pay dividends in the future when bulb replacement or adjustment comes around.
