Morette headlamp smashed
#1
Driving along the motorway today minding my own business when I see a large low flying object fall off a damn truck break up and it is heading straight for me! Nothing i can do but wait for impact as another car is next to me. OUCH!!
Anyone else seem to be a magnet for this? I hate those uncovered trucks!
Anyone know where i can get some new lenses for my morette headlight on my bugeye wrx, theres a bit of cosmetic damage but i think i can touch that up. Phoned the dealer and they said its about £150 each lense! Sounds a bit excessive!
Thanks

Had lens broken by a stone. Quoted £86+vat for new lens from dealer in midlands, but have been waiting 3 weeks so far, as apparently is a supply problem. £150 appears to be taking the p***

If i do that maybe i could rename in a scoopri instead of scooby.
Crap joke i know, thanks i will call them and put that price to the dealer see what they say. That was fitted though, how easy/difficult are these things to change? I bought some silver indicator bulbs to replace the standard orange ones, but after a quick look decided i would have to remove the unit to fit tha stupid things.

You should have made a note of reg or if a company lorry with a number on in phoned them. Mate of mine had headlights and stone chips off a lorry after pulling out of building site. He complained to the company and then got his insurance company on the job
