So mr. deer got me this evening. Sorry to report the deer didn't make it. Got my head light and drivers door. I'm sure there's something else, but nothing I can see right now. I'm looking for a drivers side headlight for a e9x BMW from '09-'11. Need the HID, not the xenon. If you have one or know of a good place on line, please let me know. I need to at least get the light replaced before it rains and takes out the bulbs. Probably be a while before it hits the shop.

I would try Martin's Import Salvage in Wendell- or call Jeremy at Wagner's, even if they don't have what you need in stock, the old school junkyards get stuff from other yards all the time.

Or Ebay, seriously- you'll likely have to weed through a ton of JDM style new aftermarket crap headlight listings, but you should be able to find what you need at a decent price if you poke around enough (and use some search filters)
.


EDIT: $63 with free shipping and you're back in business at least temporarily- http://www.ebay.com/itm/2008-2009-2010- ... TP&vxp=mtr

Gorilla tape is my temp solution for at least getting by for a week or 2 on a bad headlight. With the rains coming this week, I know as soon as the rain hit those exposed bulbs they would blow. At least this way Pam can drive at night. That tape is sticky and thick. About 3 layers made for a decent lens. I was afraid it was going to melt w/ the lights on, but it's held up well so far. I'll let the body shop deal w/ this now.

Appreciate the leads everyone! Now to find a good bodyshop. Need to review the thread that Karl started....
