WANTED: rubber boot for a xenon headlight

WANTED: rubber boot for a xenon headlight

I need the rubber boot for a xenon headlight. It is the one that goes over the igniter wires and connects to the headlight housing.

I hope someone can help me out with one.

The dealer doesn't sell them and mine is allowing water into the headlight!!

They are telling me it is not sold seperately.

it is part of the $500 igniter. it is a small rubber boot.

it's a 2001 x5 4.4i

it's number 2 on the attached photo. I need the rubber boot on in the middle of the wire.

CHeck Ebay....see if someone has a set of X5 headlights for sale. EBay will have to be cheaper than the dealer.

I might have something. Does it matter from which side? I have a 2003 Xenon headlight assembly that I replaced
