Hi all
finnally got round to replacing the headlights on my 200 today, thought everything was going to well & then it all went t**ts up. Found my original headlight adjuster screws were a lot longer than the donor headlights i had acquired, that i can deal with! The amount of rust in the os headlight panel where it is joined to the battery carrier has freaked me out. I knew that my os inner wing assembly was going to need replacing at some stage but i was not expecting it to have deteriorated to the headlight carrier. Now the inner wing replacement wing imminent i need to know a few things, can the inner wing panels (which i know are available in sections) be spot welded into place & is the headlight carrier available as a separate part & not the complete front panel? also i was told the headlight adjusters for a 200 are approx 40 quid, surley this is not right for two plastic clips & two orange knobs
