Some little scrote has kicked in one of the headlights on my girlfriends Nova whilst it was parked on the drive. Thank god the 14 was in the garage!!!

Anyhow, Jim Potter has kindly given me a nova headlight to replace it with, but the reflector has gone black inside the light. All I need to do is get the glass from his headlight onto the smashed one to make a nice new headlight.

Any ideas on what I can use to stick it back on again??

No-more-nails has been suggested, maybe Araldite, any other ideas?

Thanks

Dave

EDIT: Or how to get the fcuking glass off!!!! GRRR :mad:

Which side headlight is it? Ive got a complete light in the garage but cant remember which side. If its the same side its yours if you want it.

Arse, its a driver side one, I think, not sure, they are almost square and cant remember which side the slanty bit goes on.:( You can have it though if you want a spare.

Nip down the scrappys mate, if they are only £40 brand new they shouldnt be much more than a tenner from a scrappers. Or try a factors, you'll deffo be able to get pattern parts for a NoGo.

The slanty bit goes on the grill side.

Thanks for looking Steve. I might pop around anyhow just for a look at some point :)
