need help with Headlight ? peoples....

hey peeps
my driver side connector for my headlight is like half melted. i dont know how it happened cause the passenger on looks just fine. i need to get a new connector. Do any other honda's use H4 blubs where i could go to a junk yard and buy one? or any place online i can buy one?
already went to the dealership and talked to the guy and he said i was better off doin it myslef cause they were goin to charge me a hella-of-a lot of money.

i check out the site and found it but that's around the same price the quoted me. It was way over 200 without labor. that's why he was tell me to just get one froma junk yard or old car, cut it off and connect it to the one's i have on there now. i just need the H4/ headlight connector.
thanx thou 2k1

well you prolly melted your harness because you prolly have some pretty high wattage bulbs, also from the last i remember i believe the 6th gen civics also use h4 bulbs so you could prolly get one off there.

since your wire is melt on 1 side, you might want to consider about getting a HID kit
they are so bright and sick looking to criuse around at night time

depending on if i get this new job a real HID kit might be inthe future

just an update:
the problem has been fixed and only cost me $2.25
i saved like $230 not including labor
junkyard cahrged me $1 for wire and connector and i need some electircal tape($1.25)
everything is good for now.
thanx for the responses.
