Broken connector for small bulb in small driving light
Hello,
I made the mistake of breaking the connector that holds the small bulb in the small front headlight. Ugh. Is there anyway to replace the connector or do I have to buy a new headlight assembly and pay a dealership $500 for the replacement. Being a female I'm not sure if their trying to take advantage of me. It's my fault I should have let them replace that little bulb instead of me trying to take care of it.
Any advise would greatly be appreciated.

Out Of Control!!
I would go to a local or regional junk yard and snip off the appropriate connector. Alternatively call LQK!!
PS:If you do this you will need a small set of connector pin removal tools

Looks good. Interestingly enough, a lot of people have said their favorite part of the car has been getting the door handles wrapped, even after getting all of the other chrome pieces on their car wrapped. Small details goes a long ways sometimes.
