headlights

I am in need of a headlight structure for my car. Driver side, whole thing every bolt, can anyone help? It would appear that no one around here junked or has one for sale, or on e-bay, all i'm asking for is a link, or a phone number.

91 Firebird - (non-formula/TA/GTA) just firebird

what is up with everyother one being interchangeable but mine, really freakin frustrating me, because the only one i can find is at my brother-inlaws dealership, and even at his discount i'm talking like 500 beans someone freaking help me please:hail: :hail: :hail: :hail: :hail:

Well, there is a J/Y near me with 2 '91-'92 Birds. I believe they are just base Birds (though I'm pretty sure there is'nt a diff. between option packages). Their Phone # is (570)-324-2109. It's Matt's Auto Parts in Liberty, PA. Just make sure you tell them what you need down to every nut and bolt. I don't see why they couldn't ship it to you if you gave them the right info. Hope this helps.

Trust me, those are the only 2 I can find around me since I rescued my '91 in December from another local yard. A factory GFX, power everything, Black, 3.1. It's a ground up resurrection, all but the motor and underpinnings though. GM shall be getting a call sometime for a nice crate motor, and it will be gettin a nice road race/street suspension. Anyways, hope this can help you out.

I am not sure what parts your exactly looking for, but I can tell you this, from 87-90 and 91-92 there only a little different.

the 91-92 had smaller headlights, and the bezel that surrounded the headlight is different, .

The parts that bolt directly to the car are the same, the motors are interchangable, but everything that moves are different, except for possibly the arms. But the headlight, the bucket, the light brackets, the bezel, and the door are all different.

NOTE: you can modify an early door part to fit on a late model by trimming off one ear

NOTE: If your in a pinch, It is also possible to take an early 82-90 assembly and have it work on a 91-92, but the bezel will not fit because the bumper facia is different...

its been a few years since I worked on a 91-92, but I hope that helps.

John
