Title: 2008 147 Monza
Post by: Mau-i on May 26, 2018, 09:37:16 PM
Hello,

Anyone on here know much about the headlights on the 2008 147 Monzas?

Having trouble finding a pair over here in Australia  and have found some in the UK.

They keep telling me they don't have the ones for my vin number.

Everything seems to be the same except the colour of the inserts from what I can make out.

Is it a structural thing or is simply just the colour of the inserts?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Chris

Are you searching by VIN or part numbers?

Searching via vin numbers. I don't even know the part number of my lights. There ate several numbers on them but I'm not sure which one is the part number??

It's quite possible none of the numbers on the lights, are a complete number for the headlight assembly.  Are they conventional (incandescent) or gas discharge type?

Based on your statement that the car is a 2008MY, there are possibilities:

RH
50508161 superseded to 50517862
50508163 (gas)

LH
50508165 superseded to 50517866
50508167 (gas)

However the gas headlamps have been superseded too, 50517864 and 50517868

Thanks for your message.

I finally came across the part numbers I need and they are the same as you have written.

So I've ordered a pair.

Thank you very much for your info and time.😀😀👍🏻
