What are these moretts worth?
 

I'm thinking of selling my moretts but not sure how much to ask?
They have the original cibie lamps,unfortunately the reflector/lenses are starting to rust and one of the inner glasses is cracked,the frames are in good condition.

I payed £170 for mine bear in mind he sprayed them for me also took main beam out and installed trumpets with cold air feeds

Cheers
I could fit some new hella lamps for 120ish to make them mint,I do have a cold air feed trumpet which goes on the inner so that's an option.

Why don't you get them dipped in carbon put the £120 new lamps in with cold air feed then put them on yours it'll look sickk bro a little project for you, even plastidip is an option:thumb:

+1 love my moretts

Hmmm yeh might do that :thumb:
Probably one of the things I would regret if I sold them.

I've got a few bits to sell when I clean the garage out so might just hold on to them for now :)

I would mate :)

Have you got any pics of them fitted to your car mate?

When I see bannys car it defiantly makes me want to fit them,must say they look very nice on a classic :thumb:

Anyone got any details on the trumpets to go in the inner lamps ?

Had them on mine, the only thing better is the projector HID's I now have.

:luvlove:
Love it mate!
Now I've seen that I want a front splitter too!

Keep em, tidy them up and fit em, a lot brighter than stock lamps IMO and give a slightly aggressive look if that's your thing.
The full beam is awesome if road car also

Looking good busta,are they the hella lamps you have in there?
Standard lights are pretty pants so would defiantly serve a purpose if I use the moretts,and the more I see them the more I love the look.
I've got a few parts lying around in the garage so was just going to sell everything and get some cash together,but since these aren't worth much then I probably will use them,I'll be keeping an eye out for some replacement lamps.

Rich don't do it, really don't like morretes on a classic, always think they look abit tacky, standard lights are pants in brightness but must be abetter way to improve brightness.

Sell them and spend else where on the car.

Everyone has their own opinions and tastes, if he wants them then leave him be :)
I've a set on my car and the difference over standard lights is incredible - especially if your car is pre99 without the crystal headlights!

Do have a set of induction trumpets sitting here for the inners if anyones interested then send me a pm :)

That grill really sets the front end off with the lights :luvlove:

Rich can put what he likes on his car, but it doesn't hurt trying to wake him up to how awful they look. :thumb:

Stock lenses I believe, they were mint tbf, just painted and stuck some phillips bulbs in

Grill? Its a stock one

I guess the only thing to do is get some new lenses,paint them up and fit to see how they look in the flesh.
As they're probably worth very little as they are then they'll get thrown back in the garage until I can sort them out.

If you look at the White scoob his grill is sitting flush where yours is bulging out seems DIFFRENT unless it's just me ??

I actually see what you mean now, thats why they call them a 3d honey comb grille or whatever. Never paid any attention tbh.
Pre facelift and facelift by any chance?

+1 for pants, never liked them myself, I get it for big power air intakes and the trumpet but as a "Look" always thought it spoiled the car, each to their own.

Hi mate

Can I please buy these as they are? No repairs or modifications needed. I really need a set for my new track car! Will send a pm with my contact details.

Alistair

pm sent!

There you go, get rid Rich.

Have I spotted these on ebay 200 quid?

Nope, they are another set for sale!

Just like waiting for a bus, I waited 6 months to find a set of Morettes, found none. Then Rich's set appeared here, I bought them for £150 delivered, basically only the frames are okay, all the lamps are corroded. I did get some 80/100W bulbs and an intake trumpet included. I knew all this before I bought, so still happy. I'll need to respray them and buy new outers for £30 (not fitting inners).

Then on the same day I recieve them this new set appear on Ebay, frames in same condition but with 4 new condition lamps, for £200 (with offers) + £10 delivery. I could have bought those and sold the inners for £60-£75 posted!

So if you are looking for a set, the Ebay ones are a steal!

Ah ha, i couldn't view the pics as i'm at work, :-) I did like them on my silver classic. Tempting. Cheers

Glad you received them ok Alistair

The ones on eBay have cheap valeo lamps(£20) even corroded cibies fetch more(maybe the reflectors can be renovated?),and the outers are hella(£50)

After £35 postage(lots more than I expected!) and pp fees I ended up with £110.
Always best selling stuff the old fashion way I guess.


Cheers
Rich
