Styling Where can i get arbarth headlights without using ebay?

[Kerr1992]

Hi guys, i took a wee trip upto my local auto parts store, they are usually quite good for getting bits and pieces for cars, now they couldnt get the arbarth headlights for me, so i was wondering if anyone on here could tell me where to get some?

On ebay they wanted £70 per headlight, which i dont mind paying, however i have a thing about buying car parts off ebay as you cant really send it back if there is a fault :O

Is there any genuine websites that specialize in fiat parts?

cheers guys

could try contacting shop4parts and seeing what they can do.

Failing that try a local accident repair company they can usually get parts in to order

Thanks mate

And another thing!

see the front fogs on the Turbo models do they come fitted to the bumpers or could i buy a set for my 1.4 active sport? mines just has the big squarish fogs on it?

And by the way, do the turboed models sit any lower than my active sport? im just hoping there aint going to be too big a gap above my wheels when i put on my 17s

Yes you can replace them fairly easily, just pop them out, pop the other ones in (remember the wires ^^).
i take it you have 15s on at the moment?? if you put 17s on they should have low profiles on to make the circumference the same as your 15s with standard tyres, if they are bigger your speedo will be out and it could hinder your performance and damage your gear box, so it will still have the same gap afterwards, hope this helped

£70? Dream on, £150 per light!

Fogs are black on the sportings as opposed to silver

Pattern Parts though, OEM all day long please

 

[DarrenClark]

o right , wondered why there was such a big difference between prices . Them ones just knock off replicas then ?

 

[punto_matt]

Yurppp they are

 

[DlightSwitch]

Few people on this forum have replica abarth lights though with no problems

 

[punto_matt]

Yeah im not saying there will be a problem with them, i just like proper OEM stuff

 

[DlightSwitch]

Me too, but I like money a bit more

Obviously if it's an absolute crap knock off though I'll pay for the original. If I were to buy abarth fronts I'd buy the £70 ones since i can't tell the difference in pics I've seen

Always OEM. I've tried pattern stuff before and they never fit properly and wear out faster.

Don't even get me started on pattern body panels .
