Looking for R129 head lights LHD for continent

[arniev]

Hi all,
I'm looking for headlights for my LHD R129 to drive & register on the continent. It currently has UK lights.

Anyone got any ideas where to get them (apart from Merc). I'd be happy with used or after market and would rather not spend a fortune.

Thanks,
Arn

Hi
I had a similar problem when I moved to France - the cheapest option I could find was to get my nearest Mercedes Dealer (in France) to change the glass - each glass was 111 euros (+TVA) and they charged me 68 euros (+TVA) to do the job - I guess you could do yourself but I was frightened that I would break the plastic clips ... so left it to the experts. Hope this helps.
