Hit a crow today at about 55mph on an A road, frustratingly doing a good deed for someone.

Thought I’d gotten away with any damage but on closer inspection the headlight lens for the passenger headlight is cracked. Really gutted.

Just had a look on eBay & surprised at the cost of them second hand. My lights were mint, not a single mark ‘pre crow’ so am reluctant to risk a scratched / chipped / pitted second hand unit.

Any ideas where best to buy? Anything I need to look out for when installing a new unit? Do they need aligning afterwards etc?

Any advice gratefully received…

It’s a 2015 LCI in case that makes a difference.

Cheers.
