Signal Lamp replacement - USED?

OK OK...I need to replace my right signal lamp (hopefully not the full headlamp assembly).

Last night while parked in a remote corner of a wal-mart car park, I came back to fine one shopping cart on the side of the car and another wedged in the front.

Signal lamp was smashed. grrrrr

I cannot figure out if someone did that intentionally or if the wind blew the carts across the parking lot while I was busy shopping. Either way... I am angry that people dont put their carts back when they are done with it.

Can anyone tell me if I can get just the signal lamp replaced. I would prefer to get a used one because...1. cost... 2. it would look funny if one side is clearly new

So...any suggestions on where I can get one before my credit card spontaniously combusts at the dealership. Hey with Christmas coming...

Thanks in advance.

All OEM Auto Parts will probably have what you need.

A piece of extra advice, when you own a "not-a-honda" I suggest that when parking at supermarkets, you park far away from the entrance. This might be a pain in the a$$ but it does reduce the chances of expen$ive damage from stray shopping carts. Another tip that I learned was not to **** off people in "lesser cars" by sneaking into parking spots ahead of them: people seem to enjoy keying a Benz.

I did park at the end of the parking lot. So watch out. It still isnt safe.

Thanks for the link though. I shall certainly check it out.
