Good source for headlight assemblies
 

My 2002 passenger side head light bulb popped out of the assembly while on and melted the inside half of the headlight assembly. It started a mini fire which was scary but only burnt the headlight assembly. I managed to break off the melted parts and remove the headlight assembly. I removed the burnt part of the lights which is bassicly everything in the engine compartment but the exterior is fine. It looks easier to just replace the whole assembly vs just the back half of the light package. No junk yards have these lights where I live. Does anyone have a good source of used light assemblies?

Thanks

You are going to have to go outside of where you live to find the assembly. Try yards in different states for the assembly. I would recommend Bavarian Auto Recycling, but I just called them and they don't have any X5's in their yard. You always could go aftermarket and use Depo. Most people who upgrade their lights go with Depo, but is hit and miss. Some people have no problems, some have a ton.

You could also try forum member MrBMWX5. He may have some headlight assemblies left.

I might be able to help, My GF dealership has a junk X5 in the back... I'll see if the headlight assy are still there...

I had her check... both assemblies are missing :(

Does anyone know what these cost per side?

Any other good parts up for grabs on that bad boy? I'm local :)

You may not know it but this is an old post like 10-09-2012, @ 01:14 PM

Whoops! Quicksilver do you want pricing for pre facelift assemblies?
