Chanteclair,
I'm not totally convinced about this -- the third photo looks grand, but the first one I'm not sure about. I think perhaps the side pieces are too wide - I would reduce the width to just about the width of the overriders, perhaps a cm or two outside them for ability to fix to the mountings. There again it's your car and who am I to suggest changes!!!!!

I like the look of the lower cowl, but not keen on the extra bits.

However - Here's a beautifully finished aluminium jobby on e-bay:
Item number - 250576860847



And one not quite so alluring:
Item number - 290395378499

John (Sprinty) could have done with that second one last year Though a cast alloy skidplate might have been better

Should I think about the first one for the Drivers' School at Prescott in June?

Cheers,

Absolutely perfect!!!

I also like the spot light fitting, can you send me close ups?

Are they Cibies?

Thank you.
No they are HELLA.
Not easy to find them, sorry.

Je pense que la partie est soit un capot en fibre de verre ou d'une pièce d'aluminium qui est le "Solid" partie - La grille est alors comme la partie supérieure de calandre en acier inoxydable. Le maillage est alors comme la maille qui va derrière la grille.

J'ai demandé au gars de Newtown à l'ordre des bits donc je vais découvrir bientôt! : jongler avec: [/ quote]

Exact.

Keith,
The beauty of Hellas is that many of the models are a lot thinner than most spots ( in marked contrast to Cibies which are often tubby little so and so's)

That( and the quality) is the reason a lot of people go for them ( I think Graham put up a post dealing with this when he was talking about his MGB)

The parent company- Hella KGaA is in Lippstadt, Germany but if you did want to chase up availability, then their UK headquarters is based at Banbury, Oxfordshire

I got some spare parts for one of their lamps a few years ago and I do have a telephone number: 01295 272 233. They may be able to point you in the direction of a stockist?

regards,
G

Yes - Colerne was an expensive day out with a new tie bar and sump!
I think that may even be my car in New Elms modelling the grille!

John

eBay is quite a good source for new Hella spotlights.

There are a few businesses that retail them via eBay. A search using "Hella spotlights" will turn up a selection of options. I've also found eBay a good way to unearth suppliers; often if they aren't listing the type you want, they can sometimes source them.
