how much for dual optics and what do i need and do i need to re wire.

 

[Nick_P]

I think they are £57/Side. From renault. Or look on ebay every day. Theres a guide in the guides section.

 

[jakm15]

sod £57 a side lol, they seem pretty rare so they go for £60 plus what ive seen on ebay, ill give some scrap yards a ring.

 

[.GAZ.]

some for sale on here im sure!

 

[cat171]

gsf or euro car parts will sort you out.

 

[Ian]

I paid £70 in total for mine from Steve79 on here, they seem to come up quite a lot. The re-wiring is simple enough, you can have a look at mine if you need to pal.

 

[jakm15]

just had a look at the guide, tooooo complicated, i have bad experiances with car electrics

putting an extra cig lighter sockett in and managed to make my radio and all lights not work and the car wouldnt start, just put everything back as i found it and it worked again, just re wired my lights for the ph2 lights and thats about as complicated as im going lol

 

[Ian]

It sounds awkward, but it's not.. it's basically splitting a few wires so they go to two places instead of one.

 

[jakm15]

if i could f**k the cig lighter up imagine what i can do with the wires in the engine bay lol.

when id done you would probli put the indicator on and the windows would go up and down lol

 

[Ian]

Haha, well if you're at another meet have a look at mine mate and see what you think then? That reminds me, when I was wiring my new door cards up I managed to get the windows going down when they should have been going up and vice versa. In fact the Dual Optics are the only electrical change that I didn't mess up lol.

 

[Rojer]

Well i need one aswell just one because the plastic clip hidden behind the grill and bumper someone has snapped that and the top one which a bolt goes through has cracked and someone has tried to glue it. Would that fail an MOT not sure??? Do you have to buy in a pair?

 

[MarcoB]

The pair that are on my car are shagged, I had to make brackets with mecano shite. Not ideal but for 60 delivered im not complaining. The wiring is really easy just make sure you follow the guide 100% when doing wiring, i didnt follow it when i did my rear lights and royally fucked up. Soldering outdoors ftl

yours still going strong? not had any problems with the bulbs after changing that fuse?

 

[Ian]

Yeah they're fine now mate cheers, touch wood. I'm guessing it was probably something to do with my brother tbh, he has a habit of breaking my things! Hopefully the bigger fuse will stop anything happening again though.

 

[rexe]

ian, if you come across another set of headlights give me a shout i need a Nearside headlight asap..

 

[Ian]

Will do pal, it stopped working? I owe you one for getting me back home on Sunday anyway, really should learn the roads round here!

 

[rexe]

no some GOON fitted the bulb incorrectly, and its melted the holder so now the bulb wont sit into the holder whatso ever... grrrr

 

[Ian]

Trying to think what the holders are like, don't think you'd be able to use one from a standard set would you? They're all one piece aren't they? Only reason I ask is I have a standard set sat in my garage that you could loot from if not.

Will keep an eye out anyway mate and drop you a PM if I see anything. Going to Ladybower on the 12th btw?

 

[jamescolli]

If its the holder for the HB7 your after there about £15 from stealers! otherwise get yourself down the scrappy!
oh and its not the same as any other clio headlights believe me i've looked:dead:
