headlamp

Washed the car yesterday and noticed condensation in the near side headlamp assembly, am I right in thinking this needs to be looked at under warranty as this would fail an MOT or is this normal ? Thing is the wife is taken the car in to have a few things done and I don't want her fobbed off...

I was trying to change my regular sidelight bulbs to some Xenon LED ones I bought. If it wasn't bad enough that the LEDs dont fit, (head of the bulb is too big), when I was replacing the original bulb it came loose and fell into the headlamp. Just as I was pluging the bulb holder back in. [:@]...

just browsing and found a picture of this headlamp for sale on ebay it looks different to mine, like the main light, mine has two bits or is just a bad picture?

Sorry, I know this is an age old question and have already seen one thread about this before but cant find it. Got the side skirts, rear spoiler and now an 08 Cupra black front grille on me Leon FR (She looks bloody gorgeous, in me own humble opinion) will get some pics online when the...

I installed the FR bumper on my TDi sport only to find the front bumper came from a car with headlight washers, leaving me with two holes in the front. I have the headlamp washer covers waiting for me at the local dealer, but they are currently primer grey. Any suggestion how I should...

Headlamp Washers Retrofit - Cupra Owners Look In Please Hmmmmm. I've just put some Cupra bumpers on my TDi sport, but didn't realise that the original car had headlamp washers and I don't. :( EDIT: They were sold to me as FR bumpers, not Cupra, hence the mix up. The simple solution is...

Hiya fitted my HIDs at the weekend and was wondering what setting is best to ensure oncoming traffic isn't dazzled. I understand that as you move up from 0 to setting 2 you lose coverage/beam length. This is obviously for when your car has more passengers and load etc. But we are obviously doing...

I plan to fit my h7 6000k HID kit tomorrow.However, knowing quite a few of you have done this recently how have people fared with there headlamp alignment after their kit is fitted. Have many of you realigned them yourself, have they not need realigning or have you taken it down to the garage. I...

Need a new headlamp bulb for the Leon Cupra. Just wondering instead of just buying normal crappy halfords ones, is there another that i can look at getting, as in maybe a bit brighter light? Im not taking mega expense here though. Thanks guys

Apologies for posting a new Toledo problem in the Altea forum, but there are not very many users posting in the New Toledo forum yet - anyway its just the Altea estate !! 1. The rear bumper is a slightly different shade of paint to the rest of the car ! (Metallic paint) When i queried the...

After a little chat with m0rk about the number of HID related enquiries recently it has been agreed to create a single resource on the subject. I will start it off and get as much as I can think about down and then help will be needed :p Here we go Leon/Toledo HID Guide/FAQ What are HIDs...

One of my headlamp bulbs blew on the way to work this morning and when I was changing them at lunchtime I noticed that the chrome reflective panel inside the headlamp had a crack and as a result the headlamp rattles unless the black cover is fitted over the base of the headlamp. I'm not unduly...

I was swapping my front indicator bulbs this afternoon when disaster arose! I had changed the bulb on the passenger side and was just clipping the headlamp cover back on when one of the metal retainers fell off into the engine bay under the air intake hose! Due to the undertray there is no way...

Can anyone provide advice on how to adjust headlamps on my Altea for continental motoring ?

I had my radiator replaced on my '03 LCR under warranty in January this year. A couple of weeks later my offside front headlamp bulb (H7) blew (nothing unusual there I though-just a bulb expiring). Since then I have had a further two H7 bulbs expire in the same headlight. The last one went...
