Title: Headlight units, which cars share 126 units?
Post by: Hazey-n-Marc on January 11, 2012, 11:17:59 AM

Hello.

Does anyone know of other cars that use the same headlight units?
Viva hc lights look similar?
Jeep Cherokee?

A part share section (confirmed and unconfirmed) would be nice, and probably not that long.

Cheers

Marc

I read somewhere  that the quad rectangular headlight Maserati (Quattroporte Mk3 or Biturbo?) uses the exact same headlights as the 126. I think the 127 and old Fiorinos use the same headlights as well. Not sure about the 128/Zastava-Yugo GTL55 (they have similar sized rectangular headlights as well).

That's a real bonus, I bet they are much cheaper through the maserati agent!

It is the Biturbo that has the same.

Some of those got no parking lights in the reflector, like Zastava GT55 (otherwise are exactly the same).

The "Cherokee" type and ours look the same size but with a bit different shape. There are many aftermarket crystal options, also legal HID reflectors for bulbs. (Well, how you fit them to the car is hard to say. Maybe needs to play a bit.)

Check this Yugo45 out! 8)

I have never really desired a Yugo, until today that is.

Yes, the Yugo 45/Koral is based on the 127  :)

The Fiat 600/850/900T vans use the 126 headlights but without the side lights.

 I was seriously considering one of those Yugos. A bit like a Mk1 Golf, but not a Golf...
