Hi,

I am looking to buy some parts for my Alfa 156. Specifically I am after
Front spot lamps (n/s and o/s) where do you shop online? Please don;t tell
me e-bay as they are too expensive and then postage gets added on... i'm
after a decent site thats reasonably priced and can offer a quality service
if my lights get damaged in transit.

I would prefer new over breakers but i'm open to offers...

Thanks
Andy Mak

Are you going to keep asking the same question until you get the answer
you want to hear?

You have, as you've already been told, 2 options.

Pay full price at a main dealer for new items or buy from ebay. Most of
the specialist Alfa breakers sell mainly via ebay these days.

Try ringing a couple of dealers. I had two distinctly different quotes
for the same part. Mangoletsi nr Manchester seem to do some good deals
... and will post. I don't think 3rd parties are making these yet. The
JTD doesn't have the same type as the TSpark or the V6 which is a
bummer. Otherwise the other guys have all mentioned the same aftersales
sites as I would.

Remember an Alfa thermostat comes complete with a new housing.
