Well first off what is wrong with them, be a little more specific. They're really not that hard to fix, I just got done doing my passenger side on my 91 GTA. Basically all youll need is a 1/4" rachet, 2 4" extensions, a 10mm socket (if memory serve me correctly), a swivle/knuckle extension, phillips head screw driver and some torx head drives.

Basically to get the headlight out you have to remove the black trim piece on the front, then pull the headlight, then remove metal piece on the top that goes along with your hood (not sure of the name of the piece but you cant miss it) so when they're flipped down your car doesnt look like doo doo, then there are three bolts at the top and two at the bottom underneath the head light assembly.

Here are some pictures of my stuff if your interested. There kind of big, but will give you an idea of what broke on my car.
