Hope those are more plentiful in your area, because I suffered with a broken one for at least 6 months (yes, I paid $80 bleeping dollars for a broken headlamp assy., I NEEDED it!) until brando shot me a link from ebay, for $20 bux US.

The wreckers all over town had nothing but '90 and newer, which have the low/high beams reversed, for $125. The wreckers who have sattelite link, found a couple in Ontario, all sand and salt pitted and wanted $225 plus shipping all the way across the damn country.

CHECK EBAY! Every time I look at that headlight, I thank Brando. ;-)

My luck is getting worse. Got the car running good enough to take it for a 5 minute drive. Some asshat decided to come over in my lane at about 80MPH and his mirror collided with mine, heres the result:






Gonna get another one and paint both mirrors black.
