Default Headlight assembly for 2001 GC

Getting ready to replace both headlight assemblies for my 01 GC.

From a Youtube video, the replacement job looks fairly easy to do.

The problem I am having is deciding upon which online vendor has the
best product.

Right now I am looking at:

http://www.1aauto.com/1A/HeadLights/...HP00073/259176

Has anyone here have experience with purchasing and replacing
headlight assemblies?

Thanks in advance,

Larry

What's wrong with em? if it's just simple haze that can be buffed away
fairly easily. McGuires makes a decent product. You can even use
Flitz or in a pinch, rubbing compound.

Most aftermarket are "Crown" (made in China) parts.
I've had various levels of luck with them
mostly http://www.car-stuff.com/crownheadlights.htm
where I picked up replacement adjusters for cheap.

Looking at OEM,

http://www.chryslerpartsdirect.com/
has OEM for $297 each
chrysler-partscenter.com
is about the same (also a dealer like CPD)

Looking at the cheapo site.

http://www.carpartswholesale.com
(used them before with good results)


The site you are looking at has a 3y warranty, that's not bad at all.
I'd probably go with them.
