WTB -"U.S." Headlight Assemblies

I have an '88 560SL with the European Headlights. I'm interested in changing back to the US version. I need the complete assemblies (I guess).

Any of them floating around out there? Interested in a trade??
Or do you know a supplier of used parts that would have these in stock. I've worked the phone and the computer and cannot locate any.

Please let me know...

Michael B

I've got a pair from an 89 560 SEL, fair condition, but need new doors. I don't know if they fit the SL.

check on ebay. do a search on w107,mercedes lights, bosch,hella, mercedes parts at ebay. you may come up with something.

Or maybe another member wants euros and will trade his U.S. ones for your Euros.

Earl:
The headlights from an SEL aren't like the SL headlights at all.

Missed my Sunday nap...

Thanks Gilly, I was thinking SEC not SL. I'm new to this, but not that new. If I would have posted in the middle of the night I might have a more valid excuse.

The headlights in the SEC aren't like the SL headlights either...

Gilly,
Would the SEC be a swap with the SEL since they are both 126's, or is the coupe a different front end? Thanks.

SEC headlamps are specific to SECs. The same holds true for the front bumper, grill, hood, fenders, etc. That fact (and the fact that they're pretty pricey new) makes them somewhat more valuable than most other used MB headlamps.
