Did you try to search the forsale forum? I remembered someone was selling it for 100 dollars + shipping. If you bought it brand new you need to do modification to make your bulbs fit. DIY seems a better way!

they fit but some leak and fog up your head lights. silicon seems to work, everyone else uses it. i havent heard anything about the jdm style lights foging up, just the projectors.

If you're gonna have to reseal them anyway, just DIY it and save some loot. Open them up via the headlight clearing instructions, pry out the orange reflector. Apply 2 coats of flat black automotive paint as a base (no need for primer or any of that stuff) then grab a can of Duplicolor Graphite Wheel Paint (trust me!), apply like 8 light coats, pop the reflector back in, reseal in the oven, and away you go:

It's kinda hard to f#$% up headlights, so you shouldn't have a problem - plus just about everyone here knows the ins and outs of opening them so you can ask anyone, including myself, for any guidance. Good luck.
