Hi Everyone,

Im after some advice / guidance if possible please.

I've just had the car through an MOT and unfortunately it failed because of the rear headlamp leveling device - essentially the linkage / arm has completely snapped hence the failure.Honda unfortunately don't sell the linkage/arm separately so it would be £514 to get it replaced.

Has anyone done a DIY repair on the linkage before or knows of somewhere that sells it separately please? Based in the north!

Thanks

It's definitely been talked about before. Either a quick weld, or using some threaded bar to replace (or a combination of both) will sort it easily.

Just buy a new bar like this

Measure yours and order the right length. It's a really easy fix and costs bugger all. I have done it on mine

keep us posted on the length you eventually used - would be good to keep note!Ta!

Thank you very much for the replies guys - really appreciated!

Thanks Nottm for that eBay link - really really appreciate the help.

I managed to purchase an entire second hand unit from eBay for £30 to save the faffing on and to have a spare.

I'll measure the length up just for future reference incase anyone has this issue

Linkage used was the 90-105mm length - done the job perfectly.
