300 shape headlamp and indictor fixing?

RobP · Jun 17, 2012

Hoping someone can help?

Have been rebuilding the front end of the disco which has included fitting new light boxes so have changed from original 200 shape
Full thread here

Got to the stage of fitting new 300 shape headlamps indicators grill etc.

Not sure on the headlamp fixings there were two long and one short adjusting ball joint things. which goes where?
At the moment the angle seems all wrong

Also should the be something between the bottom trim and the side of the light box here

Would really help if anyone could post a few pics of what it is supposed to look like??

Cheers Rob

Looking at the 1st pic, I'd say the longer ball joints should be to the left of the headlight.

Regarding the gap between the headlight box section and the wing, there should be a metal plate. This is paramount if you don't want the indicator lens to get clogged up with mud every time you go off road. The more you can plate up that gap - the better.
And while the wings are off, plate up the large holes at the back of the wings - this helps to stop a build-up of mud around the door hinges which is a common problem.

If it helps and you can wait till tomorrow, I'll take the headlight out of mine and send you a pic as to what it looks like so it gives you an idea what should go where.
I'll also take a pic of a bare wing and point out where I recommend to plate up.
