Technical Which Headlamps?

[alexjs]

Hi all, I am aware there are variations in panda front headlights. I have a 2010 eleganza 1.2. Can anyone who knows outline which replacement lights I should be looking for? Thank you

Hi,
Does your car have an interior dial to alter the up/down aim of the headlight beam?

Should have a purple connector

They changed from yellow in 15/07/09

The layout of the pins are different

By this time, as far as I know all headlights had the height adjustment

Easy enough to check,, just pull the electric connector off and check it's colour

Online sellers often put the part number for right hand drive but that's not what you get

@irc might know better the quality of aftermarket headlights, but I would be tempted to go straight for second hand

I am only seeing one part number for all the trim levels at this date, except for some of the 4x4's

Thanks for this. I’m trying to repair some crash damage.

Thank you, this is very helpful.. I would have a look at the light myself but I’m not with the car currently.

One new headlight will make the other one look nasty. Go for a used unit, just make sure you get one with motorised beam levelling.

To simplify the search, put you car details into eBay. Then (obviously) be very buyer beware. Many sellers don't know what they are selling.
