I saw which headlamps i need to replace mine, the Sylvania H4351. However, i they are 25 bucks at my local pepboys. Thats 50 bucks if i were to replace both lights.

I have one light out, but figure i might as well replace both.

Is there a cheaper substitution then the 50 bucks?

 

Ebay has them for pretty cheap, thats where i got mine from.

 

Well, they got them for 15 a piece, pus 14 total for shipping. So i'm at 45, instead of 55 after tax from pepboys. Then i gotta worry about shipping and damage to the bulb.

 

All you have to do is replace the bulb in the glass housing.
Its got some white goop sealing it to the housing, just gently pull the burnt out bulb out of the housing and install the new bulbs with clear RTV and let them sit overnite (this step is important) and your back in business for 20 bucks for both low beams.
Do a search on headlights and you should come up with good info.
I put in some hyperwhite bulbs and moved my low beams to the inside on my 94.

 

i have the bright bulbs and the low beam bulbs just sitting here since i bought halos that came with thier own lights.... not sure if the bulbs from 2000 will fit 97 but if they do ill send them to you for like 20 plus shipping... my car only has 39k on it
