Default The hassle of a new light !!

Hi all

Just need an MOT on my Hawkeye and my front passenger headlight has a crack in it so i am told i need a new one. Where on earth can i get one from. I know Subaru have them for sale but i nearly passed out when i was told how much they are...Do i have to bite the bullet and get one from them or is there anywhere cheaper?? i cant seem to find one for love nor money??

Your thoughts

Called the scrappy and he had none and Ebay for some reason did not have one?? All very odd. Not to worry. Did not realise they were so much doe from Subaru, i need an MOT , might put it in for a service as its nearly due and then the cost of a front headlamp ...not ideal to be honest!!!

Ebay is full of 'they're mint mate' tossmonkeys where lights are concerned, if you want a good one see it in person at the scrappy or buy new. ebay ones, the last two sets I have bought work but are scuffed. Bargain hawkeye parts aren't as easy to come by I have found.
