I want to replace the now very tired looking headlights on my 2002. I've tried cleaning/ploishing, etc., which has removed the yellowed colour, but still not happy with the results. Can anyone tell me if the US sourced parts are compatible for UK regs? I've read somewhere about compatible flat beam pattern or something like that, but can't seem to find any info.

:idea: Yes mate the US ones are identical as they are flat beam, ive just replaced mine from the states, if I can find the sellers details I will let you have them as they were from a spares outlet that is closing down and selling off cheap and no problems with delivery. :thumbup:

Hi Russ, you are looking for Wagner H4351 halogen headlights for the low beam, Im not sure about the main! If you contact eileen6702 on Ebay and tell her what you want she will list it so you can buy direct, great service, good price and fast delivery, good luck Trev.

Thanks, Trevor, but mine is 2002 - the all in one moulded units. I'm not sure how to attach a picture so here's a link to one! - http://www.cars.com/chevrolet/camaro/20 ... r-reviews/

Have a gander on here, http://www.partstrain.com/store/??N=0&N ... iversal:0), they seem to have a good selection and is possibly where mine came from originally

Thanks, AndrewC. Any idea which ones they are? Seems to be so many. And they are UK compliant? Where are your "auxillary marker lights" (side lights / parking lights) with those? Sorry so many things to think about!

These were fitted when i picked the car up and have been on for the last couple of MOT's at least without any problems i can see.

The side lights are LED rings around the main/dipped beams, along with a further 3 to the side as marker lights. From what i can see they could be either the Spyder or IPCW models.

Thanks very much AndrewC, I will look into this further. Do they give good night vision in your opinion as they claim? Might ask them whether HIDs can be fitted too, I currently have HIDs in my old set. :-)

Shipping from that company is horrendous - they want more than the cost of the lights, nearly $300!! It's a non-starter :-(

Damn, that's expensive!!

Have you thought about talking to one of the companies that ships things over regularly to see if they'd look to supply and ship them over themselves ?
