heres what happened lady backed into left side of my car....
ok so the shop ordered the left headlight.. 4days later installed it take the car home it turns out the new headlight and the old one is TOTALLY DIFFERENT, i dont know if its a new generation or from the wrong year, cause now the new headlight is A LOT brighter and old one weaker, when i turn my 4ways on ppl think iam turning thats how much different in power output there is, also the turn signal blinking speed is different....

 

I don't know what the difference is, but I think I would find out what they did and do it to the other side. You can never have too much light...

 

yea but wouldnt i have to pay for the other one?? the light costed $550USeach, i think their projectors, their not open on the weekends so gonna have to find out monday.

 

good

 

???

 

Yes you can contest it. You should have checked it all out 100% before you took your car. I had to have a shop repaint a door because I was not satisfied witht he quality of work.

 

I'm assuming that if you're posted on this forum, you have a gen4 or CRX. Composite headlamps do dull and yellow over time. If they replaced the left one with a brand new one, it is going to be much brighter than the original one. Either get a new right one or get a used one for the left side. The speed in which it flashes has nothing to do with the lamps themselves, but indicates that you have a bulb out if it flashes at a faster rate. Take this up with the insurance company and not the body shop. The body shop only did what the insurance company told them to do. I don't know where $550 came from. I wish I was at my shop right now to look up the price. Post the year and model of your car and I'll look it up when I get to my shop.
