I bought a passengers side 2006 coupe Headlight for $60 lol and I have a couple of questions.
1. Is there any way to put a whole new glass on the outside of the headlight? It's in great condition but I just want a whole new looking headlight.
2. The cable that goes to the bumper corner LED lights is just cut at the end. How could that be fixed?
I'm also looking for the drivers side light
1. There is a way but just restore the headlight if needed, It'll be way more cheaper and easier than buying and replacing the lens. I know someone who sells the lenses for about $500 a pair new, ridiculous yes I know.
2. Pictures will be more helpful because it's sounds like your talking about the side marker harness??
Don't do a headlight restoration just yet. You may be able to just clean that with some elbow grease and rubbing compound. It doesnt look too far gone.

$500/pair for the set? That is expensive, but way cheaper than new lights. I can't say I'd be against it. Who is this someone? For future reference.

Beautiful! Yeah, rubbing compound is great stuff! A buffer/polisher is great, but I never know if people know what they're doing on here, so I wasn't gonna suggest it, cuz you can burn thru the plastic if you're retarded. You did a great job tho.
Mine where pretty badly yellow so I wet sanded it down with 300 grit circular to remove scratches and yellow layer, then 400, then lastly 1500 then applied clear coat and it made it look like a brand new headlight.
UPDATE : Just bought the Drivers side headlight on ebay for $350 shipped last week. Just got in and it is even more beautiful than my passengers side. Also more neat in terms of wiring in the back lol. Now that I'm comparing the two, I have questions.
1. It turns out the wire I thought was cut, IS NOT the side marker harness. It is in fact the piece that connects to the ballast
2. The one that just came in (Drivers side) has dust looking stuff inside by the clearance strips. The seller referred to it as a spider web effect.
