My driver side head head light went out the other night and I checked on it and when I took the connector off I looking inside and all of the metal prongs were basically dust and now I need to replace the connector and I went to the local nissan dealer and the idiot behind the counter tells me that they don't have any in stock but they can order one for me for about $15 but if they put it in it would cost me $100!!!!!!! I got so ****ed I almost jumped across the counter, anyway I've been thinking about just doing it myself but I need some guidence and I don't know if anyone has gone thru this and I was just too damn lazy to do a search.Thanx

Re: Re: go to a junkyard....Go to Walmart

Im a high recomeder of the junkyard, but this item in particular can be pick up at Walmart. It would be easier to just do that. It'll cost 3 bucks or or so and it'll be new compared to snatched 1 from the junkyard. Either way those are your chooses. Also Pepboys, Discount Auto, and other auto part stores carry the harnesses as well. Three options to choose from now....
