Default Headlights are EXPENSIVE!

I had priced headlights for a GS300 & LS400 new $675-$800. Thinking the ones I wanted would be no more then $1000

So I went and bought the corners from a newer model to put on my car 2 weeks ago $145. I went today to order the headlights. WOW they wanted $1900 for the set. The only reason I was going to get NEW is a USED set are harder to get then USED headlights for a UCF10/11.

Picture of my old......... I got Juntion Produce bulbs for fogs now no more yellow.

These are the ones I want........ After looking for 8 moths for a USED set and no luck I was going to buy NEW. I guess I better keep searching for a USED set.

You must of been reading my mind.......LOL

Its NOT a junk yard but a place that sells used VIP parts. I am going there the middle of DEC. I took a weeks vacation and going to go party at Tokyo. While Im over there I will go to Hasegawa VIP used parts store. Im looking for a few thing for my car and I already have a wish list for some CL members so I will check on stuff for them.

If that place is worth it next spring I`ll barrow a van and go back and load it up w/ stuff. 9 hour drive each way.
