Fairly good price if it is indeed GM lenses. Although I can't figure out why they would charge more for one side than the other.

gm does that fairly often, usually due to certain parts being more popular ( passenger sides tend to get more damage than drivers)

That's what it is....In this case the drivers side is actually more expensive than the passenger side.

WOW some parts are pretty steep. I was looking at a rear quarter since mine has some minor damage and its over $500. Looks like I will be going with aftermarket replacement body parts.

minor damage on a rear quarter should be metal finished, why cut and weld and then metal finish when it's not necessary (quarters are welded on)?

Has anyone bought these before? Or even anything from this particular website? Also, it looks from the pictures like they include the side markers, what do you guys think?

I bought mine brand new from Ed Morad. His are not the GM ones, but they are exactly the same and come with a lifetime warrenty. Cost is about 100 bucks per side plus shipping.

If you go that route, make sure you put your old ones in the box the new ones came with and save them. If you ever have to ship them back to Ed, you will have a box to ship them and a headlight to use until your replacement comes in.

Too bad Ed doesn't offer this service anymore. I checked a few weeks ago and he no longer sells lifetime warranty headlights. Its too bad, i'd jumped on that.

Instead I found a really nice deal on Ebay.... eBay Motors: 1997-2003 PONTIAC GRAND PRIX Head Lamps RH LH 98 99 00 (item 260260025040 end time Jul-13-08 23:32:59 PDT)

$122 shipped to my door for the pair. The quailty is fantastic, I couldn't be any happier with them. I'm glad I found these. The seller is a cool guy, I had them in 2 days, i was surprised.
