Face-lift High Beam Reflectors

[Angarak]

Does anyone know if its possible to purchase the high beam reflectors for face-lift lights on their own? (or the high beam light unit on its own)...or do you have to splash out on a complete headlight unit?

What the hell are high beam reflectors ?

[Angarak]

They would be the shiny silver reflectors with the beam scatter pattern for the high beam light

 

On the pre-facelift headlights, the beam scatter pattern for the high beams are on the plastic lens, on the facelift headlights the high beams shiny reflector has the beam scatter pattern and not the plastic lens itself.

Im sooooo lost, our lights dont use them though.........if Im on the right track........

It could be Im on the wrong track lol.

 

Im under the impression that the facelift highbeam light has a 'patterned' shiny reflector that is responsible for scattering the pattern.

 

Here is a pre-facelift light (high beam scatter pattern is in plastic lens):

Here is a facelift light (the reflector appears to have a 'pattern' on it to scatter the beam):

Now I know the facelift plastic lens still has 'markings' on the lens around the high beam area, but not as much as the pre-facelift.

 

Im basically looking into the possibility of using a facelift high beam reflector/light unit in a pre-facelift headlight that has a clear lens (like the ones "suprattgaz" has made).

 

Can anyone confirm if Im on the right track?

Wasnt aware the face lift lights had this scatter thing, but I knew what you was on about from other cars.........

 

I'll shut up now though as I havent a fecking clue what your answer is, so Im mearly confusing matters just by being here lol.......
