Was backed into. Only did damage to my left front corner. Only cosmetic. I'll attach a pic. Already ordered the fender and bumper. My headlight functions properly but it did shatter the lens. Can I replace the lens or am I looking at a whole new assembly? Also I can't a used left headlight any where. What are my options?? I'm worried if I get a brand new one it'll be way nicer than my old right one. Thanks guys!
Sorry for the dark photos.. Makes the headlights look black. They're not. |

You need to get a whole new assembly.

you'd need the whole assembly, but you have to swap over the ballast, control unit, and possibly bulb depending on what you have. if you can find me a part number i can see if i have one for you. it might have a broken tab or two and some scratches, but if youre looking for a quick/temporary/cheap fix it could work. definitely keep it out of the rain and moisture if possible because the components pretty much cost as much as the headlight itself. if i do have mine, it would be a z4m bi xenon steel one
and if you have full coverage and/or uninsured motorist you should file a claim. the damage is still a couple thousand. also, it would be good to have a report on file because there are cases where the person who hit you could file a claim against you later on saying you rear ended him and left the scene. i believe the statute of limitations is 2 years in okc so they could open up a case anytime within that time frame.

This guy is parting out a 2004 E85. I've bought a few things from him and it's been a pleasure.
He has each headlight assembly for sale for $350 each OBO: https://losangeles.craigslist.org/la...127758288.html So, hopefully you might be able to save some money buying these used in conjunction with filing the claim as suggested by kdanny626. Good luck! |
