Help please Front Headlight!

Hi,
Can anyone recommend somewhere I can get hold of an O/S Front headlight assembly? The lens on mine (on normal lights) has dropped out of its housing....most annoying as I feel I could just reach in there and put it back, even got my youngest to try with her small hands (after removing bulb of course), but to no avail, anyone any ideas or do I bite the big one and purchase a new one? Sheesh!

Cheers for reading!!

Re: Help please Front Headlight!

you could take it out a try and repair it....i seem to remember somebody saying that if you heat up the light you can peel the front glass off which should let you fix it

Either that or try a breaker on ebay...
