Rick-Manta Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 I had the stupid idea of trying to see if I could make some improved 3D-printed solid headlamp seals for the later (more common) Manta square headlights, instead of having to use those flappy thin rubber ones, so I bought a pair of the OE metal surrounds for the very early Bs with the longer/deeper (hoooyeaaah) glass lens in an attempt to adapt them. This turned out to be more trouble than it's worth, so they're surplus to requirements now. They're quite scarce, but understand with that is a limited market too! In any case I'd like to get my money back on them so looking for £60 for the pair. A trade might also be an option as I wouldn't mind a few spares for my hatch such as bumpers, lights, wheels.. Thanks muchly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
®evo03 Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Do they only fit the deeper lens. Do you need to fit the rubber when fitting these? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick-Manta Posted February 26 Author Share Posted February 26 Yes. No. I believe as I'm not 100% as never had a Manta with these before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Barrett Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 They will go over the later lense but fit correctly over the earlier type that were supposed to have them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
®evo03 Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Any chance of a photo with them fitted to standard, non original, later type lens. I never really looked close, didn't realise there are deep and shallow glass lenses. I may have both, and never knew? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick-Manta Posted April 14 Author Share Posted April 14 Price drop to £40 including post and packing (through Evri) before they go on eBay--I'd rather take a slight loss than let eBay make 15% on them again! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
