So, long story short...had the car parked in the back yard. It was in the driveway and to the left of it, we have an area of grass and then a fence (about 5 feet distance apart). There was a long piece of thick wood leaning up against the fence holding up some other wood panel boards and the wind blew it over. It hit the driver's side headlamp. Luckily it didn't damage the fender, hood or front bumper, but the fog light and area aound the lights are cracked in a few different places. The main headlight is ok.

QUESTION: Do I have to replace the entire thing? OR I went on infiniti-parts.com and saw a breakdown of the front headlamp assembly and thinking we definitely have to replace the fog light and housing area, but the rest of it is probably fine.

Also, this is something we could do ourselves? Thanks!

 

Post pics so we can have a better idea. Also, post the same question in the Tech Area too, those guys tend to know the most.

 

Thanks. I have them on the camera so I will put them up tonight.

 

As far as I know you have to replace the entire unit. At the dealership they would not sell individual components

 

I found a place online where I can get specific pieces, but the thing is, not sure how much damage is done underneath, I can only see from the outside at the moment. Haven't taken it apart yet.

 

sorry i got your PM but chad@infinitispecialists might be the best way to get the headlights

 

Close-up shots of the right headlamp assembly that got hit.

Kinda looks like we just need the housing as the bulbs are fine.

 

bummer Shelah... is this on Josh's new car?

 

Yea. We are just going to replace the entire thing.

 

Damn that sucks!
