  • Cracked Hella Spottie

    Hi Guys,

    picked up my new prado yesterday (second hand) and the left spotlight (Hella Rallye 1000) is cracked with a hole in it (1 inch) and has some water in it. Tried to turn on the spotties and the right one works perfect but the left is caput.

    The spotlight seems to have been in this condition for a while and I was wondering wether it's just a matter of getting a new lens + Bulb and perhaps diffuser or if it's a simple chuck out job and start again.

    The diffuser is fairly dirty on the inside and the water very murky (assuming it's been broken for a while).

    I'm also concerned that the water may have fried the wires. Don't want to go and buy all the spares if then it's completeley stuffed and need a whole new light.

    Anyone had any experience with this or can help?

    Thanks!

    Do your self a favour and buy something a little more robust. The 1000 has a mounting bracket that is prone to cracking. We go through them like no ones business at work. I've had a set of 4000 on both my present 120 after I took them off my 98 GXL - over 10 years of use. Currently have fitted HID internals. There's heaps of other good brands around as well.

      The Hella 1000 series lights use a combined lens/reflector setup similar to a sealed beam light. Simply undo the screw on the bottom and pop out the lamp from the plastic casing. The globe will clip out of the back.

      Its been a while since i've had to buy one so do your homework, it may be more economical to buy a complete spottie...

      Bushbasher - I hear what you're sayin, I did a couple years out there at Kanowna Belle and Paddington Gold. Useless for that terrain however now I am a city slicker again I find they are a pretty good light.
