Got a set of front genuine morrette head lights for a classic impreza. i removed them from my sti type r and fitted standard lights.
Just wondering if anyone knows where i can get parts to refurb them ie lenses.

I was planning to refurb them and sell them on as i prefer the standard lights.

They still work fine but one of the lenses is broken and there is some small cracks which i was going to fill but not very noticable when they are fitted.
Was going to look for a lense from a fog light the same size around 5.5" od anyone got one??

Cheers

I got quoted a price, and was promised a reciept with full payment details about 1.5 months ago, but it never arrived.

I never paid for the item, only got a price quote, and in the same mail he said I would get another mail with a bill, and payment info.

Never got that second elusive mail.

Depends which lens you need: inner, or outer?

The smaller inners are rare, although someone recently started selling them again, around £60 each.

The outers are easy to get hold of, they are the same lenses that fit cars with 5 3/4" lights, Cibie.

Forgot to say, don't spend loads, I recently sold mine for £92 in perfect nick.

Ebay there are loads of outers, for 30 quid a pair.

I still think the inners are mega hard to get, alcazar, you got any links?
I think you could have got more for your morettes, must have been the wrong time on ebay. You could still get 180-200 for them on here I reckon.

I still want to keep mine, I prefer the look, even though I have projectors. I've been thinking about buying a set of the crystal outers, to do a projector retrofit. But the guy selling them on ebay is an ****, and doesn't reply to any queries.

I like the Morette look, yes.

Can't find the link now, Harvey found it, and he's not well at the mo.

They were £60 EACH iirc.

After a new mail from Harold @ Morette I ow them an apology.
They did indeed send a invoice right after they said I would, but my spam filter removed the attachment, and proceeded to delete it.

So Email communication with harold@morette.com is working, and working fast.
The fault was at my end.

LOL, try using a Hotmail address.........loads of people's systems send it straight to junk

Indeed, but the funny thing is, that I added the Harold Adress to trusted contacts (and those should be able to have attachments, and even if Thunderbird splits the attachment it should be in the trash, not removed totally)

Ah well, after a re-install at least now it works (judging by the amount of junk email I get from my old adresses.

Aye, NEW sets. Not a bad price really, given that I paid £320 for electrically adjusted ones morethan TEN YEARS ago!
