Default NYC Update: Cost of repair for Stolen Xenon Lights = $ 3,040

Of course this is the full price of the repair, I'm paying ONLY the $500 deductible.

Is there an original post? How the hell did they get them out? Did they damage the hood?

Default Well, the one's from AWE..

appear to use the factory HID and Bulb, does anyone know if there is all inclusive housing? So all that needs to be done is plug and play?

Since it's "his" money from the ins. co., he can techically buy any replacement parts for it.

Default My insurance company paid for mine.

They gave me the check for all the repairs, and $385 of it was for the drivers side light. An extra $100 out of my pocket payed for the pair of euros.
