Sorry, don't know how to edit my other recent post but...
Scumbags returned to my work colleagues van a couple of night ago. They stole the RHD square headlights and grille. My colleague and her husband went to try STW (T3 specialist in Coventry) for potential replacements to find that their own van's similar lights had been taken on the same night from within their 'secure' yard.
Let's hope they catch the thieving bastards!

that's shit! can you get security screws for headlights, grills etc? might be a worthwhile investment...

A profitable nights work for someone - what are RHD lights worth, about £250 a set with grill?
Don't think security screws would help, if they've come armed with enough gear to try to "torch off" the ignition barrel, a set of security screws won't stop em.

I think it is Lythalls Lane, or somewhere nearby.

Hey Paul if your refering to S&T vw just of stoney stanton road in coventry then i would strongly recomend you avoid them like the plauge , i wouldent let them work on my push bike let alone a vw ! and thats from expieriance several times ! (hey i like to give benifit of doubt !)
they do have a machanic working for them that has a conciance and is pretty good , but its pot luck if you get him !! AVOID IMHO ! any contact numbers for this e bay seller !?? and could ur m8 id the grill in anyway ?? |
