Hi All, just a quick question! The bulb has gone in my headlamp and had a look at it lastnight and there is no way to replace the bulb like in modern cars. So my question is! Is it a sealed unit and if this is the case then just phoning the local spares place and asking for a sealed headlamp for a mini will get what i want?
I am looking to upgrade to Halogen, but was going to wait until the next show.

Thanks for the offer but! Went into APS which is next to me at work and was saying that i was after a sealed unit but was hoping to upgrade to halogen and was going to get some at the next show. However they had some hologen conversion sets there! So got them. Plus we get a bit of discount at APS.
All solved! Just got to fit them this afternoon.

Just for those concerned! Its very easy to do the halogen conversion. Took approx 35mins and some of that time was taking the wheels of to check the brakes as my car is pulling to the left when i brake (Brake pads on the right of the car are stiff causing the extra braking on one side). So next month is the pads and disc's as will get a better set than the standard ones.
