Somehow managed to smash the left front headlight on my MY00 SIT. Phoned my local dealer and he wants £195 + £25 to fit it!
Is it a sealed unit and is this the normal price to pay for one? Can I get one cheaper somewhere else?

Cheers for the links. ScoobySport sell second hand lights for £85 compared to the dealer list price of £190 new.

And once you've replaced it, invest in some covers!
They are only about £39.99 for the pair from the Scoobynet shop.
