i just dont want to risk not gluing it back together right and have it condense up on me. i also have a black car so it wouldn't be too noticeable.

Thanks for all your help and replies. Finally found my headlamp at a local auto salvage for $175.00. It was in excellent condition and not a bad price for an oem headlamp..

They're a real pain. Even worse to put them back in.
