Exactly right ^^^^^^^^
I thought my headlights and housings were expensive... $800 for a housing and $100 for a hid bulb. So if both sides needed to be replaced... $1,800 not counting labor... $2,000. . Including labor.
And that is cheap now compared to vehicles with LED lights and massively expensive housings that are way more than mine. This compared to headlights that used to be quite cheap... And bulbs that were cheap too... My lady's Camry bulbs cost just $20 at most a piece.
Vehicles will now likely be totalled.... From front end damage that used to be not such a big deal... But now it is... Due to expensive housings and headlights.
Add that plus radiator damage and other front end damage like front valence damage and other ancillary parts... And possible airbag use or damage... And they will be totalled. A airbag in my 08 Ford Fusion would have cost $3,000 dollars... I hit a deer going 64 mph... $7,000 worth of damage. A new radiator needed, new hood, new front valence, new right quarter panel and obviously new right front headlight housing and new airbag on the right side... The abs light came on and stayed on... I knew it was messes up or should have deployed and yet it didn't. It caused the car to be totalled.
