Hello all, hopefully someone can help or has come across this issue before. I got my 325 two months ago and the previous owner had done it in the classic 1980s Warstiener race scheme style.

On one side of the front the inner full beam lamp has been removed and an air intake has been provided in place of the full beam light. So at the minute I have the normal two light set up on one side and on the other I have just the dipped beam and the air intake. Anyway, my question is - is it possible to get one headlight which will have both the high and low beam in one that will fit. If this is possible I was going to leave the current set up and replace the outer lamps on each side. I will try and get a picture uploaded of the current set up(not too sure how to do it).

yes, you can get low/high beam single units. I think that something from an early VW fits.....

Thanks kam-325i

I will look for some more info on this and hopefully find something. Are you talking about the 1980's VW lights?

Would be great if anyone with experience chips in on this, cheers.
