Default ap2 headlight recommendation

http://www.carid.com/2005-honda-s200...ghts94618.html

Okay recently my headlight was leaking like mf. I thought there would be seal problem but when i took that sucker out. I found massive crack to the headlight assembly. So now I need a passenger side ap2 headlight. However these cost arms and legs brand new. Aftermarket ones seems little bit more reasonable but honestly i like oem style better. And pretty sure oem out put is better.

This was all i could find but if you guys have something in mind let me know

I hate when my headlight leak out all my blinker fluid, I swear you should see the look on the guys faces at autozone when I ask them where the blinker fluid is...

Joking aside, I agree with moddiction, OEM is best.

Yup, ended up ordering oem from bkhonda.
Argh 450 with 2nd day shipping. This wasn't in my mod budget plan so it kinda makes me mad.

That's just the headlight housing I believe. Not including the ballast, bulb etc which most people sell them used for that much money including those parts.

yup, no ballast bulbs. Just housing. I think it does come with lenses though. I will probably sell my "cracked" so someone can savalge the lense.

OEM ones have the best cutoff. Brand new ones (only housing) should run you around $385 each these days. I'm trying to find the link where I found them for around that price.

$398 a piece plus shipping. Around the same price as what you paid.
