After finally getting the headlight issues fixed, I got the front of the car back together. She loves it. Turns out the seal had been compromised on the headlight allowing water to get to the ballast. Replaced headlight assy. , ballast and ignitor. The ignitor was still still working but it had signs of corrosion so I replaced it as well. $700 in parts from Majestic Honda. ( they were wonderful) Fed-Ex misloaded the package so that took a couple of extra days. I took the whole front end of the car apart and swapped parts around with the good headlight until I found out exactly what parts needed to be replaced. I would like to know how much I saved her in labor. Anyway she still wants a white or red one and I told her if she finds one i'll buy hers. Pics to come.

 

If that's the case, I would have waited till a white or red one (without headlight issues) came up for sale...

 

Even after the headlight issues she has $20,200 in the car . We are negotiating with the seller to get some $ back towards the headlight repair. I haven't seen any 2004 s2000's that cheap, much less one with 17k miles.
