Hi

My satisfaction when hearing the H4 had passed its MoT without so much as an advisory note was somewhat dented when I spotted that one of the headlamp covers (moulded clear plastic mounted in the bonnet) was missing. Having checked the area I can only assume it was detached en-route.

So, does anyone have a nearside unit, a pair, or knowledge of any way to obtain one or have one made that will save the day?

Thanks

Ian Cummings made a batch up a few years ago, i don’t know if there are any left.
You could also try Quantum, they may have some.
 
There were actually 2 sorts, the early ones had a black band around the edge to hide the adhesive, the later ones didn’t.
The glued on ones tend to be the ones that fall off after a while so a few screws are a good idea, just don’t crack the Perspex

Thanks, I'll ask Quantum.

Is Ian on this group and likely to see the request? If not I'd appreciate info on how to contact him.

Ian's family business is Charlesworth and Son. https://www.charlesworthmouldings.co.uk/

He built a 2+2 then H4, so knows the cars quite well. I guess if QSC don't have any try contacting Ian via that link.

Regards,
Steve

Rob at Quantum was making some. One of my mates got a couple of the early prototypes. Not sure if he has had time to do more though. Worth a call to him to check

Thanks all, it sounds promising at least. I'll follow that up.

Hi julian
We have made new moulds for these and have made a few sets, however they are not of the same quality as the originals.
I will check the stores to see if we have any used ones left
Regards rob
