Headlamp fixing tabs.

[Pitsmoor Col]

A couple of the tabs that hold the headlamps in place are broken, this seems to be a common fault, so I was wondering if any one else has had the same problem ? There is a repair kit on ebay for around £20. Has anyone had any experience with these repair kit's are they any good ? If they are it will save having to remortgage the house to buy another lamp.

Sure would headlights are now more than I paid for my first 5,6 cars . Beyond stupidity, for owners.

The kits are good. You can actually buy repair kits from mercedes, but often the parts advisors like to look at you dumbly.

Even second hand unit's cost an arm and a leg.

Went down to my local main stealers just to price the Headlamp repair kit's. They are 2x the price of ebay ones, so no surprise there then. I stumbled on a vid on You tube, showing how to repair things with Super Glue and Cotton Wool, so going to have a go when I get around to it.
