Missing headlight dust cover?
« on: April 09, 2016, 05:54:04 pm »
Anyone know where it's gone?  :signLOL: It was definately there when I changed the bulbs in December.... where's best place to get another, guessing scrappy or dealers. Only noticed because headlight is misted up slightly after washing.
Don't suppose anyone going to Elsecar tomorrow has a spare one kicking about in a box somewhere, it's the big plastic one for the headlight bulb, not the rubber thing.

try eBay or call vw and get the part number and search for it. But calling vw for the part number is helpful

Have had a quick look with a torch, couldn't see it.
Seems the most direct route is through a gap on to the road.

Perfect thanks, wasn't expecting it to be a lot from VW.
Will ring in the morning and will get my wife to pick it up during the week as I'm away in Holland for a couple of days.

Well it seems there's 2 different covers and I managed to get the wrong one!
Will have to phone in the morning to order another, hopefully they'll take the incorrect one back...
