  • DS3 Number Plate Lamp Lens??

    Hi I was wondering if anyone could offer some advice as to where to get replacement lenses for DS3 number plate lamps.
    I discovered one was missing when washing the car only by the fact that one dropped off(consequently didnt realise until I stood on it and broke it)
    Therefore I need 2 replacement lesnes. I guess its too early to purchase any online as I have already looked.
    Appreciate any advice. Thanks

    Lenses usually come complete with the bulb holder...i wouldnt of thought they would cost more than a tenner to be honest. They should be the same lights they use on most Citroens. Part No. 6340A3

      Thanks Herby...called in with the dealer as u say have to get the full unit - lenses dont come seperate. Not sure how much it costs - not sure yet if warranty actually covers it.

            Part number 6340F0 and they cost £10.87 inc VAT each. The lamp unit comes as a whole.

            Hope that helps

              If these are falling off in normal usage, shouldn't the replacement lamp units be covered under warranty?

                Not sure to be honest, it's depends whever Citroen will agree that it's a warranty issue. I mention it to Citroen's Aftercare area manager and see what he reckons.

                If anyone has already had it sorted then let us know!

                  A part like this shouldn't just fall off in normal use, so I'd argue the toss if it were me (or, even better, I'd ask tony30uk to argue my case for me - he'll scare the proverbial out of them!)

                    Apart from falling off, when changing the Bulb, the holder is very flimsy and snapped off.

                    Called dealer and booked the car in.....bad news is they say it is not covered under warranty. Oh well i guess they get out of things easy

                      It does seem to be a common problem - my dealer even had a car in the showroom with one of the number plate lights loose in the boot!
