7 inch lights
Hi guys,
Bought a new headlamp for my Fury after managing to smash it... I bought a WIPAC replacement 7 inch unit, but unfortunately the lens is not domed
enough and doesnt match the old one.
The old on is marked NEOLITE but i am unable to find any mention of them online anywhere.
Anyone know where i can get a 7 inch domed light unit from?
Many thanks
Ollie

Depending on the age of your headlights, it may be worth replacing both anyhow.
I replaced one of mine about a year and a half ago ago (chip in glass)
Both same make, one significantly more yellowed than the other...

It is an option, however the replacement light i have doesnt quite look right, the domed one suits the bodywork a lot better, so trying to find a
domed unit.

I did think about this, just thought i would try and find the matching pair as i liked the look of the old ones plus less work, but seems they are
hard to get hold of, or ones similar! so i might have to go with a pair of the WIPAC lenses i guess!
