Default head lights

Hello again, anyone had to replace the head light yet? Not the bulb but the whole glass housing. Prob going to regret it but found some on Ebay for my 94 disco. Wondered if it is as easy as it looks, with just popping the plastic tabs.

Also could not find that "00" lube anywhere near me in any stores. But found a 2 bottle pack in Ebay for $35. If anyone else is having issues finding it.

00 grade lube is frequently available from lawn mower service shops.

The 00 is the grade.

It is about like apple sauce. Grade 2 grease in a tube is like peanut butter.

As for the head lights, I was able to replace my D1 with early version D2 units.
