Swapping xenons for standard lights

[JayTM]

Is it possible to ditch my xenons on my 172 and put some headlights on off a 1.2 for example?

 

[Clgale88]

Yep ill swap with my lights if you want??

 

[JayTM]

Was going to get some from a scrappy and sell these ones on... surely they are worth more than standard lights. Im just sick of them going wrong now

 

[Clgale88]

Ow well maybe if they keep goin wrong i wouldnt want them what keeps going wrong with them??

 

[Reyes]

You wanna swap with money on top?

 

[JayTM]

Its just the same problems as everyone else is having, with one of them not working, just cant be arsed to change it now, would rather just go for standard lights as I'm not one for tinkering with cars, I prefer to just drive them! Yes Speccy, I want cash on top, or i'll just get some from scrappy and sell these ones.

 

[Clgale88]

which 1 isnt working?? and how much cash??

 

[JayTM]

Passenger side, not sure what they're worth tbh?

 

[JayTM]

Theres a set for £120 without bulbs, power packs or ballast units in the For sale section. Mine come with everything.

 

[Beef-Mc]

Think you can get a new set for about £350.

 

[Clgale88]

what is the problem how can it be sorted have u had alot of problems with them

 

[Sam]

they usually sell for about 170-200 mate. just incase u was wondering!

 

[JayTM]

No i've only had the car about 2 weeks, as I said I dont know much about cars, escpecially the electrics and I dont like tinkering with cars in the cold, I believe its a commen fault with the ballasts going etc, have got a new ballast here, if I knew how to fix it I would do it myself but I just havent got a clue tbh, never had xenons before.

 

[Clgale88]

so u have the new parts to sort it??

 

[f0xy]

specialist breakers sell them for 300+VAT iirc.

 

[JayTM]

Yeh, I got the ballast off a fella on here.

 

[Clgale88]

so how much would you want for part ex with cash for my standrad lights of my cup??

 

[JW]

Standard lights are nothing on xenons mate. I would never have another car without them

 

[Clgale88]

Hello bud you ok its what im thinking wouldnt mind some xenons

 

[JW]

There is some in the for sale section crusty.

 

[Clgale88]

Il take a look buddy cheers

 

[JayTM]

PM'd you Crusty, Im not after £250 for mine like the others in for sale section, but if someone wants to make an offer standard lights plus cash my way then drop me a PM.

 

[Reyes]

320 each IIRC. Thats how much they quoted me.
