WTB: 89-94 Euro headlights to fix custom retrofit

Last year I used these euro crystal headlights to retrofit Infiniti projectors into my Maxima. Here is a link to the write-up I did: http://forums.maxima.org/3rd-generat...fit-build.html

A few weeks ago, some idiot backed into my driver's front end and smashed the headlight housing. It was a hit and run. Luckily the internals can be saved, but I am now trying to source the glass which comes with these aftermarket lights.

Unfortunately, it seems they are no longer being produced... I can't find them in stock anywhere online.

I am hoping that someone on here has a set that they haven't used, or maybe just even the driver's side. I don't care if they are silver or black internally, as long as I can use the glass from them. Here is what they look like:



If someone has a set, or just the driver's side, I would be really grateful. I would hate to have to scrap all the work I have put into these.

Bump.

I'd be willing to pay a small finder's fee if anyone can actually source these.

Lol!

I honestly can't believe how hard these have become to find. I've literally been searching high and low for 3 mos now, and no one has a single pair left. About a year ago when I originally bought them to do the retrofit, they were everywhere at $80 shipped. I debated buying 2 sets just in case something like this happened, but then I thought nah, what are the odds... ahhh, hindsight!

Thanks guys for those that sent PM's, appreciate it. I'll let you know if I actually find a set!

The search continues...

Thanks to everyone that replied, I am happy to report that I finally got a pair from a member here (many thanks chrome91), and replaced the broken glass.

I have to say that the quality of the people on these forums still continues to amaze me. After 5 years on here, I have yet to see any other site that has the quality and character of people that this one does! I guess there's just something about being a Maxima owner.
