My Panda had a LHD headlamp on it (discovered when it failed its MOT because of it!) which had to be replaced as it is not a LHD car. My question is does anyone know of any dealers in Edinburgh who would buy this part off me? The new headlamp cost me about £150 quid so I'm reluctant to just scrap the old one. Any advice would be much appreciated. Lucy
 
So presumably you haven't had it long?

A wrong headlamp suggests possible accident damage. Might be just the lamp, or it could be something more significant. Would be worth taking your car to a body shop and asking them for their take on this.

Just my penn'orth.

I doubt very much that a dealer in Edinburgh would give you anything for it as there's not much market there for a LHD headlamp.

You could try putting an ad in the classifieds on this forum; if you're prepared to pack it properly and post to Europe, it could be useful to someone.

As a guide to price, shop4parts sell new OEM panda headlights for around £100; pattern parts can be had for a bit less.

You probably could Ebay it (to Europe).

It could have been a genuine error. A right side drive (ie driving on the right hand side of the road) could have been sent as a replacement instead of a right hand drive one. Sometimes people get confused between the two.
 
Can you pass an MOT with beam deflectors on (or one in this case), or is that my inner cheapskate working overtime?
 
That's a shame. I'd be suggesting for the OP to be even more cheap and make some out of gaffa tape if you could :)
