Patrick,
The S spoiler is $400 and shipping to Australia is very cheap at about $70 or less.
The rest I covered in my email along with links to www.hookedoncars.com for lens and LED's and www.keys4classics.com for your new key.

When my headlights are off the lights themselves dont sit in the centre, how do i fix this?

Does anyone know what kind of bulbs the following take?
the front/rear dome light, doors, glovebox, ash tray, automatic shifter, front indicater, front parker, side repeater, reverse, rear indicater and numberplate

I really need help on the bulb situation so i know what i need to get

Cheers,

Patrick

Is the guide missing from the headlight drive shaft? Check the PET for a sketch of it. Mounts to the car just under the front hood edge. Also, WSM has alignment procedures.

Do you have the manuals or at least online link?

Why do you want to switch to LED? Are they working now? Why not leave them alone. Wattage for them is called-out in the PET. But here is a chart for 78-80 cars:

Just wanted to update this thread since I found it via search.

The manuals at that link are all 404'd (File Not Found).

I found this page which seems to have the original manuals: http://www.ligeti.com/928/

It doesn't have anything specific to 1980, but has the big 7 volume repair manual.
