Too much Redbull ?

1. "put an air duck in" - better than a toilet duck....

2. "the lense isnt the main beem" - thus it's dip beam, and you need it for the MOT ?

Sorry pedant on patrol.

If you mean one of your lenses is broken, can I buy one, then yes, can you fit a duct then again, yes.

Is it an inner lens, or an outer, which is broken? Outers are main/dip, so needed for MoT as dunx says, inners are main beam only, so not needed and can be replaced with an air duct, but if you do this, by law you must remove the wiring to the OTHER inner light so it doesn't come on, since all lights must be used in pairs.

Outers are available here:Cibie Classic Headlamps

They are the H130's, usually the second, or third ones on the H130 bit.

Inners are, or WERE the TSM units from the same place, but you'll note that it now says POA, since they are, apparently, out of production
