    Hello.
    After a pair of late headlight rims. After changing Glenda's early lights to late lights, I had no idea that there would be a difference between early and late rims!

    Thanks
     
  2. I had the same issue good luck

    No one got a pair, maybe in a box in a garage or shed, back of the sofa?

    Otherwise extravagantly overpriced carpbay it is.
     
  5. Why cant you fit your early ones?

    There is a gap around the light itself, as the early ones seem to fit the ovalness of the earlier lights. Hope that makes sense

    The late bay rims have only one screw hole where the fit into headlamp bowl. The early one's have three holes.
     
  9. I may have some I'll have a look

    Lol, no worries, that would be great.
     
  17. I have a few which I offered to a girl on VZi for her Beetle rebuild after the vandals trashed it but that was about 2 years ago and the rebuild thread died off and I don't know what happened to it after that.
    So these are no good for you then?
