Got any R129 Euros? The headlights on this car are shite. I can get new OEM Euros on eBay from a Czech seller who has a good reputation for around $400. I'm saving my pennies. Dan Sent from my iPad > On Mar 18, 2014, at 11:02 PM, Gary Hurst wrote: > > i'd like this one when you are done with

that would be a good question as highlight assemblies are pretty clean for the most part with part numbers starting with chassis number. 124 headlights start with 124, 201 start with 201 and 126 with 126. there seems a good chance that this guy doesn't know what he has jono once bought a large

That's one reason there are spare fuses in the fuse box! - You have to stop and change the blown fuse - you'd have to stop and reset a breaker - seems the same either way to me. On Tue, Nov 9, 2010 at 7:59 PM, Jim Cathey wrote: > I keep seeing references to fuses and headlights. Is that not con

I keep seeing references to fuses and headlights. Is that not considered poor practice? My recollection is that one should use circuit breakers for headlights in the hope that they will re-set themselves if there is a momentary problem and not just burn out and leave you in the dark. The stoc
