Hi Paul, can you let me know how much for a set of manual headlight adjusters, including the plastic socket bit that fits in the headlamp frame.

Cheers :D

Thought you'd have a spare set - from the blue one or another past fragfest...

:eek: Just for the adjusters... 'kin ell... 8O

I would have expected £15-20 quid... Still, once in a lifetime change I guess, and most will never have to replace them - fit replacement lights from the scrappy instead...

£63 8O

I wont ask how much the headlights are then!

Someone told me they are available from GSF @£4 each...

Normally I'm quite happy with BMW service item prices, but once in a while they surprise me.

Thanks anyway Paul.
