Hi Guys,

Does anyone have the Bosch numbers for any of the headlamp parts.

Early projector lights on a facelift 320i.

Looking at the dip beam unit only.

I have a knackered nearside dipped beam here, there are various numbers on it 1 305 210 001, 1 305 600 033, 047403R8 and 7R017403.

Why do you want the Bosch numbers?

I'm sure you know this already, but they are handed (i.e. the left is different to the right)

Want to confirm i have the correct item as my car is 60 miles away atm.

I need the Dipped near side (LH) but think i have the offside. i have numbers 1 305 210 002 and 1 305 600 033, is this the wrong one?

I can't tell you for sure as I don't have pair to compare - I did notice on my unit that it is marked 'L' on the lip where the glass joins the backing.

Damn it,

Mine has 'R' on it :(

if anyone can confirm this is in fact an off side unit it would be great,

Thanks

Theo325, cheers for the help.

If it's got an 'R' on it, it will be an offside unit. There's no other reason that they would be marked 'L' and 'R'.
