The glass is not cracked or shattered. They do show the years of use with minor pitting and such. The frames are not broken (aluminum bits)... The reflectors appear to be in good shape.(tell me how to remove the glass and I'll inspect them)

Not sure if the lights in them work

Asking $110 plus shipping..

I looked at the lights today for the vac pod part #.. weird thing

One light has the vad pod... the other does not. I thought it was missing but no... Its a normal non vac adjust euro while the other is.. (pretty cool how the vac adjust works though)

To make it vac adjust you need like a pastic frame, the pod, some misc parts...

The lights do adjust normally.. What I thought were mounting bolts were actually the adjusting screws

they have arrows like this <----> (side to side) and ^V for up and down..

since they are not really vac adjust Ill let you have them for 90$

if i can find the one pod and the gears that are not on these lights as well as the switch when i hook them up i can make a DIY and post it here.

Well, if the USPS is as effiecient as they say they are, then with any luck, I'll recieve my euro lights tomorrow and I can fiddle around with it then..

79300sdtd 03-26-2007 12:34 PM

do you have ALL the parts needed? both vacpods, the adjusting screws, and the switch for the dash

if so then i think there is an inlet on the switch and an outlet. a constant vac is connected to the inlet and the outlet goes to a "T" then from the "T" to each light.

i believe that is all

PanzerSD 03-27-2007 02:48 AM

yup, got all that.

79300sdtd 03-29-2007 05:40 PM

panzer did ya get them hooked up? how are they working?
