My poor little copen has just slipped into a gate post... horrid snow! and smashed just the covers of the head lamp and indicator.. Any clues on the best place to buy them? Thanks
Hmm to be honest I think your going to need to replace the entire unit. I don't believe the glass is available seperate. Buying new from Daihatsu is going to cost you an arm & a leg. Drivers or passenger side?
Indicator/Fog units are on ebay: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Daihatsu-...arts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3a7bd39f1f http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Daihatsu-...arts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3ccc864a55 Just found this: http://www.daihatsu-drivers.co.uk/node/17403 According to the ebay links the items didn't sell. Worth contacting the ebay seller to see if he still has them.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/DAIHATSU-...arts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item2c6b34bf3b Quite pricey on Ebay. Imported from Japan. Might have more luck here... they appear to be breaking 4 Copens at the moment. http://www.partshark.co.uk/used-car-parts-breaking-vehicles/daihatsu/copen/
dwayner This one i have had some experience in - i had a small accident in 2005 - and busted the cover - but not the lights - Daihatsu was still in australia selling cars at the time, and even then, it still took 8 weeks to get the light cover. The good news is, you can just replace the cover. mine was covered on insurance in the accident, so i dont know the cost. I can still see the little scratch on the inside of the light cluster, which wasnt replaced.
sad to see them like that. That red flooded one could be a nice project for someone if they had the spare time to restore it and the price was right (but will proabably be worth more sold as parts). On a more positive note, looking at the crashed ones it looks like the people didn't suffer any serious injury. I think Copens are tougher than they look.
The Silver 09 one has Recaro seats! I have a call in to find out how much they want for them. It's shame they crashed, but it's also a gold mine for us to pick the bones for parts.
