The igniter on one of my xenon headlights failed (after a couple of years of being 'iffy').
The only part listed to fix it was the base for the tube holder. I eventually got a headlight unit with a broken lense and after careful checking cut open and removed the igniter. To cut my way in I used a broken hacksaw blade headed to about 200C.
I then worked out the smallest cut I could make in the 'good' light and fitted and soldered in the working igniter.
Tested the unit and then used Stika-Flex to bond the cut part back into place.
Now I have two working headlights and saved myself about $400 on the price of a new unit. :U
