was looking tl headlights on ebay.. came across this guy

http://motors.search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZhiewee83

pretty funny how 80% of all his headlights have broken tabs... anything we can do?

 

Report him to eBay.

 

wrd

 

Something is definitely very strange about that.

 

Sounds like this is a hobbie, getting lights from all high end vehicles.

 

what is that report a crime # 1-888-tips or something

 

I hope somebody steals his headlights one day. Sumbitch bastard.

 

Call the police in his town. Definately suspicious.

 

must be easy to steal Lex Rx330 headlights then hes got alot of those

 

noo, all i gotta say is....... STOP SNITCHIN' ..... jk , do whatever you like

 

Pretty Ballzy to sell them on ebay if this is the case. I mean I checked his feedback and found the majority of his sales where in ballast, headlights, bulbs. I guess the buyers are willing to turn a blind eye to where he got these parts to save a bundle.
Hell if someone can try to sell parts of the Space Shuttle Columbia after it broke up during re-entry on Ebay, anything is possible.
All I have to say is I'm glad I'm living no where near elkins park, PA.

I wish they would come up with some kinda protection that if a headlight is removed forcefully that it doesnt just fry the ballast or bulbs, something like self destruction. That's where their meat and potatoes comes from, not the headlight housing, thats just a bonus if they manage to salvage it. If they did come up with something like that (hey, its late here and my brain needs food for thought at work) it could be a deterrent.

Could be stuff from a mechanics shop. I've gotten stuff like this from my buddies shop. Small accident happens to break the tab on head/tail light, but there isn't any outer damage. Could be stolen, might be legit. No real way to tell.

 

What are the chances of having that many minor crashed Lexus RX's in one shop?

 

Especially when some are in tip top condition according to the auctions.

 

inless its effecting you, lets not be like 50 cent on this one

 

Set him up for a delivery, and beat him with the stolen headlights!!!!!!!!

 

Could be junkyard parts. No real way of tellling if they are stolen. I know that there are a lot of junkyards from PA selling their goods on ebay.

 

ive never heard of stolen headlights in PA, but it does happen here in brooklyn. (me twice)

 

stop with taht stop snitching bullshit..
when they tax your headlights youll be the one bitching..

 

so you're trying to justify stealing someones headlights?

 

I'm sorry, but it's "UNLESS" and "AFFECTING".

 

SNITCHING? ill snitch on anyone stealn ppls shit, thats f*ckn grimey, pay for for your shit bitch

 

 

Some bastards just stole my whole sound system, leather coat, and my damn backpack just two weeks ago in a park and ride! if only i knew who they were, i'd.... AHHHHHHHHHHHH!

 

If there are a lot of those specific cars in the area, then its possible. I've seen about 5 or 6 sets of RSX headlights from in my mechanics shop, broken tabs or not. You'd be surprised how many you can find.

As to stolen goods, my friends car got stolen and parked a little ways from his house. Stole his cd player and bowling shoes. Kinda funny, but messed up.

 

well, if it happened to you then start bitching about it, if someone robbed me, id kill them if i find out who they are, but just let that person that got robbed do whatever they like =P... you dont gotta speak for them

 

These headlight housings are commonly broken like this in minor low speed front end collisions ...insurance buys all new.....left with misc front end parts....no mystery here? They are junkyard parts.....

 

%100

 

Exactly what i said, but with more detail and more explanation.

 

I smell a thief. But if I didnt have a real job and my parents didnt teach me right from wrong....... that might be a very profitable business.

 

if it was accident headlights.. why only headlights from HID standard vehicles? why not every other kind of vehicle...
i dotn know, maybe they are stolen, maybe they are not.. just struck me as a little suspicious though. i should have put a question mark in my title.

 

maybe he works at a auto body shop that is contracted by a Lexus and Acura dealers.

 

so they make you pay for extra ballast and bulbs meanwhile the ones that were in the accident still work?

 

Yeah stop snitchin.

Just buy a set from him and have him meet you for local pickup that coincidentally is at a 2nd gen TL NYC meet. Then we'll have some real street justice. =)

 

aahaha =p, you guys can all beat him up and rob him, and then, if those head lights were actually stolen, he cant say nothing himself
