Do you mean the headlights themselves? If yes, then for £50 you'll be getting a set of non 'E' marked trash that won't be any more use than a pair of candles for vision at night.......if you don't mean the headlights themselves then there are some nice spotlight covers on there
One of the guys who works with me gets genuine UK supplied Morette version 7 & 8 headlights for £295 delivered, i've had several sets off him for my customers cars,send me a PM if you need a phone number as these are a damn good price!!!!

But be ready for some re-wiring unless you can track down a set of wiring converters.

When i had my bug i went for Morette's.
I thought about cheaper alternatives and second hand items but ended up going for a brand new set.
Bought them off ebay. If you go for new you will need them painting red as they come unpainted. Its worth it as they totally transform the front end.

I went for the morette conversion aswell, personally prefered them...But its each to their own...
These are mine:
And if you are interested i have a mate who has a brand new set for sale, think he wants £250 for them.
But they are a git to fit....Wiring is a pain in the ***...lol
I opened the box, thought about it, boxed them up and took them to the dealer to fit...lol...

Chers cook but its the single screw holding them in place which is jammed. Its not a locking screw of some sort is it? Like an anti theft screw?
