Hi, I have recently bought a 2012 facelift 1.7cdti, I bought it with front end damage, and am currently sourcing parts for the repair.

Is there any difference between post and pre facelift headlights? I thought it was just the front bumper that differed however now Ive started looking I suspect the headlights may be different in some way?

Problem I have is I dont have the old headlights for reference as theyre in a million pieces

Any help grately appreciated
welcome the headlights are all the same as i have face lift lights on my pre face lift car
there is just a bit of chrome inside the facelift lights
the bumpers will fit but you would need to change the bumper mounts at each side
to get a pre face lift bumper on your face lift car
The fog light and Indacator housing are different, ans the pre-lift uses H10 bulb were as face-lift uses H11
Thanks lads, ill be putting a facelift bumper on, and luckily the mounts are undamaged, im gonna hold out and see if I can source a vx line or bi turbo bumper if possible, may aswell upgrade since I have to buy one anyway
there are a few about and i did a how to on the vxline front bumper
the most expensive bit is the indicators
Theres plenty of bare ones about but all the trims seem to be dealer only, as you say mate the indicators, I wont pay through the nose for one, but Ive got till December till my ban is up :/ so no immediate hurry, I can hang on and see if something pops up
i will keep an eye out for you let us know how you get on
Thanks mate, I will do
