I'm sure this has been brought up before.. anybody know a place to get a good deal on replacement headlight covers. Lost my driver side cover on the freeway and I don't really want to pay the dealer price of $130. I don't want to do a headlight kit as I like the look of the covers.

Any recommendations would be appreciated! Thanks

 

Call Malloy Mazda, I think they quoted me for $80.00 for one piece.

 

+1 Malloy Mazda.

 

Yep. The Chinese Ebay copies fit like crap. There's really only one way to do it.

I agree about Malloy ones.
I bought some eBay ones and decided not to use them. If you want to take a chance and are short on cash I'll sell them to you for $50 shipped.


Happy to send photos.

Malloy covers are worth it. I got some last year.

 

i would go with oem covers

 

FYI, my set of eBay ones is sold thanks to this thread.

Good luck to OP

 

I'm kind of in the same boat , i've got my covers , But had to invent brackets for them . My problem is Ebay ones fit badly , and the OEM ones break so often ? are the new oem ones redesigned so the tabs dont break as often??

 

the original ones have not had a superseeded part number. the new ones are just not 20 year old plastic

 

LOL well I guess thats a good point.

 

I would bet that Fritz Flynn has some

 

Good glue will fix the tabs for cheap if you dont lose it to the expressway

 

Yes a five min epoxy will repair originals so long as you have the parts to repair.

 

Problem is you're gluing onto old, weak plastic. The glue becomes the strong point and the weak plastic is what ends up failing anyhow.

Nothing better than new OEM parts.

Also, many times people lean on the headlight covers when working on the car. This is what leads to premature failure many times.

I just got off the phone with Malloy. $84 shipped to me (each side).
