i have a 1988 renault trafic campervan
i need headlights for her but they are no longer available from anywhere tried most aftermarket and genuine suppliers. so does anyone know a mot passable alternative option to this problem?
can i fit modified spotlights to the bumper with main and dipped beam in them or would this fail

I don't suppose you have a part number from the old ones do you?


Cheers.

ok thanks not sure where the oval plate is but i have bought a 21 light and they differ from the mk1 trafic. the trafic all four corners are 90 degrees where the 21 slants towards the bottom of the grill and there is a bit of plastic on the back of the 21 light that stops it from slotting in beside the indicator light also the fixing brackets differ

There has been other threads recently on this problem ... it does seem they are very hard to source now.
It was a practice to customise cars on the cheap in the '60s / '70s by fitting part from other vehicles (see old car mags for their feature articles). You could for example fit a blanking plate over the headlight aperture and cut a hole to take an aftermarket headlight. You could choose rectangular or round ones..and single lights or double headlights each side. It'd give your camper an individual look too.

:confused: ...I know but I think the ones I linked to are the same types as the one that Meganeman linked to :confused:

If they are the correct ones make sure to ask if they are for the UK market...Right Hand drive cars !

Post a picture of the front of your Trafic and the oval plate for us man.....Meganeman's having convulsions wanting to see it...me too :d


Cheers.

The lights in my link above are:

Left H/S... 069142

Right H/S... 069143


Just noticed this in the descriptions:

Other Information : LEFT HAND SIDE For left hand traffic HCRA 67506659

Other Information : Right HAND SIDE For left hand traffic HCRA 67504669



Does that mean they are for Left Hand drive trafics?...I think it might !



Cheers.

(I can't see straight for the convulsions) :d

Make sure to clarify this with the seller though.


Cheers.
