All,

I have recently purchased a '97 Prelude which has had a minor
accident, totalling the front bumper, bonnet, near-side wing and both
main from headlights.

I am attempting to locate a set of headlights for this model.

The dealer quoted me £150.00 for each light!!!!

There is *no way* I am paying dealer prices.

If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be much
appreciated.

I am presently in the UK but would happily buy from anywhere in the
world for a cheaper price on the lights.

Thanks

Have you tried the local auto dismantler? Front end parts seem to go
fast at those place, but it is worth a look. Also try
http://www.japanese-car-parts.co.uk/honda/ US dealerships also charge
about GBP 150 for each headlight. Of course you couldn't use the US
variety anyway, you need lights intended for markets where people drive
on the left side (limits your choice quite a bit...)
