I just spoke to Wipac about the headlamps LTi use, to see if I can buy them elsewhere, but unfortunately part of the contract states that Wipac cannot sell them other than through main dealers!

But the Levelling Motors (I forget who makes them) are probably - like many parts used - just taken from another vehicle! Does anyone know of other vehicles that use them??


darth.

P.S. I know there are 'other' makes of headlamp out there in Internet Land, but I just fitted some 'Spring' make to another taxi, and they were cheap crap that I wouldn't insult my beloved taxi with!

Hi Darth,

Wipac make the original hradlamp but I sell an aftermarket headlamp which I consider to be a better alternative than the wipac i/e it dosnt turn brown in the centre of the lens.

Contact me for more details if your not sorted yet.
