Hi,
Here's an idea.
Many different cars share components from manufacturers like bendix, valeo etc. Does anyone know if the Peugeot Van (like pictured below) shares it's headlights with the s3 33. They look pretty blinking similar???
If they were the same, it may be possible to get new lights at a reasonable price from good parts factors or possibly even Peugeot if desparate.
Anyone in a position to cross ref a parts book or confirm or know if they're different.
Don't need any myself (touch wood) but might help someone.

I see what you're saying mate... but the reverse of these headlights and indicators are completely different.
This is a Peugeot Expert van, I certainly see the external similarities.
One hellova coincidence if it was a Peugeot "Boxer"
Third and fourth pictures down... and the indicators are in there too somewhere :

Oh ok, nevermind- what lazy van designers though!
I'm suprised someone hasn't got hold of one of those dirty great 'boxer' badges from a pug dealer to whack on the back of a 33 yet. It'd be very tasteful
