SupraStar 3000 Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 Anyone had a recent price for UK Glass headlights from Steve Manley? Just need to budget for them. Oh and am I right in assuming Uk glass lights are a direct replacement for a 93 J-spec, just the bulbs are different? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tooquicktostop Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 I paid £320 ish this year, bulbs are different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 I paid £270 today without the bulbs, bulbs are an extra £6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gambit Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 Yep Mr. T in Worcester ( I get a regular customer discount) Oddly enough I went to pick them up today and they were new pre facelift plastic. After quoting a uk reg plate to them they managed to order me some glass ones for tomorrow at the same price the system said the plastic ones were.

Fitz Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 You tried Steve Manley? Heard he does a good deal for club members with bulbs too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So how much could you get facelifts for? Don't know m8 pre facelift and uk were the same price to me, I payed £283 including vat and 4 bulbs.

pbryant_knight Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Hmmm, I'd quite like some facelifts too Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyT Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 And what did he say? Don't know m8 pre facelift and uk were the same price to me, I payed £283 including vat and 4 bulbs. They are 246 quid each elsewhere. It'd be worth a check. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fitz Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 And what did he say? Speak to Dan (Pistonbroke) on here, he recently got a set inc. bulb (UK Glass Lamps) from Steve Manley at Toyota. Think it was around the £300 mark delivered to your door. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Sorry Fitz I miss read your post I thought you said you tried Steve Manley, hance I asked, what did he say. Collected today, What is that motor on the back? I don't remember that on my J-specs.... http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/9524/dsc00320jt.jpg http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/5364/dsc00321pl.jpg Ps.

Scott Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 The UK cars have headlight level adjustment. The motors are for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 I figured that's what it was but I thought that was brought in on the facelift alone. How do I get round that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abz Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 I figured that's what it was but I thought that was brought in on the facelift alone. How do I get round that? Just need UK Spec bulbs & then plug in all the wires. Did mine & the only problem I had was the existing bulbs did not fit (which I thought they would not anyway). Got mine off Steve Manley at around £320 as well inc delivery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev.O Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 I figured that's what it was but I thought that was brought in on the facelift alone. How do I get round that? You don't need to get round it. They will work just fine without the connection on the motor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 So how do I adjust it Kev? Funny thing, I'm still not convinced they are glass.... Any real way to tell? I thought these would way about the same as a dead cow... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Tap the lens with a coin. You will know straight away. The motor is manually adjustable via the screw you can see in the pic, lower middle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Ok there glass. looking at the screw it's a hex so might be easier with a socket once on the car. I just noticed I'm thread stealing, sorry. At least I think it's on the same subject. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
