I have chips on my front bumper and hood from little rocks on the freeway.
Insurance hopefully will cover Windshield, Front Bumper, Hood, and probably the lights.
I was wondering, what are the options for Pre LCI car? I know Euro lights look nicer - where can I get them?
Or, if i decide to get LCI lights - how hard is it to make them to work?
THank you,
Vlad

If your insurance is going to cover the cost of new headlights, then I'd get the LCI ones since you'll also get the new brighter angel eyes. Cost-wise, I've read about people who have replaced both LCI headlights and taillights which require them to buy a retrofit cable and new LCM but the majority of the costs come from the labor to wire the car; running from front to back and I recall it's over a grand.
If you go the Eurospec route, member TheGermanOne used to sell used eurospec headlights on here but not sure if he has anymore.

Thank you Tony.
I will contact this member if he is still around.
LCI retrofit sounds great but $1000+ for labor on top of the parts - it's too much for me right now. I want to keep the cost within insurance deductible
