Fitting Golf II headlights for Murena

[Waldo]

Hello Henrik, Do you have any of the adapter left...? or is there any possibility of getting the CNC/data files for them....? seem one of my headlights were rusted through al the way and would by no means pass any MOT......

Regards Per Anders

Hi Anders,

Allow me to jump in on this, I bought (what I was told) the last set earlier this year...
If you're desperate (and can't get the CAD files of Henrik) you can have them and make a copy. They are just a spare set that I have just in case...

Hi all

I only had a small series made, since there didn't seem high interest in the forum.
But sure, the adaptor plate is for free.
Well, at least the drawing is, so I attached it to this mail.

It is in dwg-format, not my usual working format but you should be able to use it for CNC-programming.

BR
Henrik

Is anybody interested in a set of these? I have contacted a shop here in norway for cutting these, seems like a reasonable price, startcost of 65euros for the order and about 20 euros in labour and materialcost. The startcost would of course be split among those interested.

Old lights are out now and new ones fitted.

Bulbs that provide extra light if we may believe it.














Project done.

They provide good light.
This are immitation wich cost around €12.- a piece.
If you buy Hella it comes about €40 a piece.
The original Duceliers are stil for sale around €135 a piece.
Not a difficult choice for me.

Hello Lads. I have just come across this subject.  i do not need this conversion yet but what interests me are the golf mk 2 headlights.My nineteen year old son is restoring a mk 2 nd while stripping the car broke or lost the plastic adjustment pieces that fit the three holes in the mk 2 headlamps. In the images shown in this forum subject these items do not appear to be used with the adaptor plates. Does any body who done this conversion have these attachments  or does anyone know where these parts might be sourced.I have spent hours searching the net to no avail .Heres hoping TOG.

Oetker, your headlight fittings seems to be new.
Where did you buy them?

[Oetker]

I was suprised to when mounting my headlights.
I bought the car in 2007 and probably it was done before that time.
I'm not sure but I think this was also mounted at Simca 1100.
I am also looking for this mountings with the special bolts, but sofar I didnt found them.

[klumzer]

They are available at Carjoy and Simon also has them in the webshop catalog but quite expensive. About 10-12 Euro each. A complete set is more than 120 Euro!
I thought you might have a cheaper source...

My plastic slippers used on the headlights are savable (and fortunately I also have some spares), but the bolts are rusted. I think those could be remanufactured by a good turner made of stainless steel for eternity.

[Oetker]

Yes, but the plastic is the weak point.
If needed I can think of something to put there myself.
Not original of course, but I don't care much about that.
The time this car gets some value I am on the wrong side of the grass.
Beside that, I like to drive it and not to polish it all the time.

I have a cracked VW Golf headlight.  You are welcome to the fittings from it  if they are of any use to you.

If anyone has an original Murena headlight in bad shape beside the dustbin, before throwing it away, please remove this part and send me a PM. I need that....
Thanks.
