Headlights L400 Space gear 1994/5

[KateB]

Hi all I have recently joined this forum, I have had an L300 and now an L400 exceed, I love them.
I have moved to Bulgaria and really want to import my L400 but the powers that be want me to change the headlights to LHD but over here they are not common.
Do you have any tips to help me get some or fix the ones I have, they do not need to be DOT just have LHD beams.
Please please help I have been looking for over a year now.
Thanks, Kate

The closest to you that I know of would be out of Kazakstan

The owner of the site does know english...at least well enough to take your order. He is also an active member of the Kazakstan Delica club

The part is listed here but you have to change the glass lens yourself which is easy enough with a good quality heat gun and glass sealant.

the same guy sells standard units, and being in mainland europe I imagine the lights would be LHD

Thanks guys have followed the post for european headlights but sadly they are for the later model, so will follow the Khazak thread, any other advice appreciated, what do you guys in Canada do about this?????

I bought my lenses from Rising Sun.

A heat gun pointed at the glass on your headlight assembly will soften the factory non-legal glass. Some guys have used BBQ's and ovens to heat the unit and soften the sealant but too much heat will melt the plastic housing and then you're in real trouble!

There are some videos on you-tube that show how this is done. Pay close attention to the prep, wood platforms, aluminum foil.

Most of th BC guys sell the lenses separately but I think you can also buy a complete assembly with glass legal for Canada.

Here's one example of the oven cycle...he's painting his internals but the sealant softening process is the same for a Delica.

Thanks a million everyone, I contacted the guy in Kazakhstan and he was a great help.
The lenses arrived today so all I have to do is swap they, looking forward to that!!!!
