I recently purchased new replacement headlights from Bus Depot, a little bit pricey but a much better brighter light than original?

The glass lens is NLA from usual sources- but used assemblies are on EBay and plastic replacements are available from a number of sources including Amazon. Happy hunting!

The kit has been sold.
I guess the answer to my original question is that it is OK to post things for sale.

Re: E-code Headlights

 

Why not just include them with the vehicle?

Just Google 7D1941005A and you can find some-BUT- you will wind up buying the whole assembly- haven't found lenses yet.

I used some "stick-on" felt- available at fabric or craft stores. Mice haven't bothered it.

I bought the E-code headlight Kit with "deluxe harness and relays" from Bus Depot (see ) last year but never got around to installing them.

Re: 2002 EVE Hood Latch

 

One of my EVs has a rusty hood latch cable that needs to be replaced. It caused the same problem where it wouldn't return enough to allow the hood to latch properly.? After some lubing and working it, I was able to juuuusssttt get it to latch.?

It could be that the battery install involved pushing or pulling on the release cable since it goes right over the top of the battery and could have been in the way.? I'd focus on the cable.

Good luck,
Kent


Re: 2002 EVE Hood Latch

 

Alan,

Another possibility is that the battery was installed in such a way as to engage the hood unlock cable, so that the latch is always in the unlocked position.? It does indicate that an inspection of the battery installation area should be examined.? I'll go out and take a look at my 2000 GLS.? My battery is currently not installed.

v/r,

Mike?

For whatever it's worth, I should note that this started happening after a local vw shop replaced the battery.
A somewhat remote possibility is that they damaged the hood release cable, preventing it from releasing completely.

Re: 2002 EVE Hood Latch

 

sometimes the mechanism in the hood needs clean?and lubed so that the spring in it can move it back to where it started.? It can get sticky and stay in the "open" position.
