Foresterxte Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 Hi all. I was hoping I could get some advice from people in the know on what I should be paying for a replacement Xenon light. It's a 2006 Forester XTe and the headlight has stopped working. There is water in the light fitting. Just from googling the cost for a whole new light is into the hundreds. Is this correct? I phoned a couple of garages that weren't all that interested but seen as I'm that clueless I don't want to get robbed. So if it's just a bulb im thinking up to £100? I've been told I'll need a new ballast? So maybe another £60? If I need a whole new fitting how much are we talking? I love this car but man I must be spent it's total worth in the last 12 months fixing it. Any input appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay762 Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 Wotcha and welcome - I would take the whole unit off, dry it out and then plug back in to see if it works. Next I would be hitting breakers to see if they had a 2nd hand unit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
