Default Euro spec headlights?

Does anyone know where to get euro spec headlights? I had a broken passenger side light and the one I bought ended up being a euro one. I called the company I bought it from and they don't carry them anymore.

Arrow Re: Euro spec lights

Hello from Adam in NYC

www.roversnorth.com
www.altanticbritish.com
www.ebay.com

are three where you can find those replacement parts. I would take the last with a grain of salt. There is a guy on eBay who sells, from PA USA, all EuroSpec lights but his prices are, for me, outrageous. $150 for sidelights and $150 for headlights. For that price, the vendor should install them for you.

If you want a cool upgrade, there is a outfit in Maine who sells the Defenders light fixture that goes into the Disco's sidelight. Then the sidelight will illuminate when the parking lights are on, good for that mall parking.
Look for Maine Rover whatever.

I've checked all of those places and they sell the US spec lights only. The euro spec light has a different lens on it and casts a different light pattern.

Hopefully your "euro-spec" isn't U.K. spec., ... you need one for left-hand-drive. If it dips the wrong way it is not useable on the street.

No mine is for a LHD Rover. Part#XBC105140. Now I need to find XBC105150. I found a place in the UK but shipping cost more than the light.

RoverAsh:
As stated way lots of times,try www.roversland.com
Give them a call and let them know that part number,as they import lots of euro. specs stuff for Discos and practically all LRs.
On their web store,I saw what appeared to be an euro-spec. headlamp a while ago.I can tell the difference because the border of the reflector inside the headlamp is a bit darker than the U.S. specs one,and besides,by looking on the back side of the lamp,the little bulb(parking light) that goes inside the lamp is mounted a bit to the side of the big h-4 bulb,instead of underneath the h-4 as in the U.S. lights.

Hi there... Did you ever find the headlamps that you were lookingg for? ... at a decent price?

I have a '97 with a small rock hole through the passenger side light, and would consider upgrading both if the euro specs were available...
