DRL cover (cap) .. I've lost it :(

[Turner_SRi]

I was switching over my DRL's on Sunday afternoon upgrading them to PolarG's and I assumed that I had securely put on the cap, only noticing after washing the car my headlight had condensation inside.. I must not have put the cap on properly and it's dropped out the engine bay and is currently in destination unknown..

Where can I get a spare?!

[tucpal]

you would have to go a vauxhall dealers like lookers and get a new one it shouldn't cost to much

[WhelanUK]

Can't you cover it with a bit of tape in the mean time

[Turner_SRi]

Thank you Tucpal, won't be losing another one in a hurry..

[Turner_SRi]

Yes I suppose I could as a temporary fix

[WhelanUK]

Would stop it misting up. Could try contacting someone on eBay who is braking an J, might be cheaper and quicker.

Which side is missing? The passenger side one often drops down between the wheel arch and liner, get a torch and have a good look, also if you tap the arch at the top it will rattle if it's there

[Turner_SRi]

It was indeed the passenger I had a real good look with the touch and nothing :( haven't tapped any arches though

[Turner_SRi]

If I undo the arch liner you think it will be there?

Just looked at my car, it's not the arch liner, it's the arch,

It's between the fuse box and the light but it drops down the arch, I'm 99% sure it will be there! have a fiddle

also check the plastic splash guard under neath the car

[Turner_SRi]

I'm pretty sure it's able to slip under the light then down and out of the engine bay, damn thing :( will double check this weekend as I'm away

[Turner_SRi]

I managed to get one from the warranty on the car, thanks for the help all

[tucpal]

glad you got it sorted

[Turner_SRi]

Managed to get a new coil pack and thermostat housing also and all the dead spots in 2,3 and 4th are now gone

[tucpal]

Is you car the 1.6 there have been a few reports of the thermostat going very early on that model but glad it's all done we still need a how too for that also

Yeah it's the 1.6, unfortunately didn't do it myself as it was in the garages hands under warranty
