Xenon alignment mechanism broken...

Can these lights be repaired? A small fender bender caused the alignment mechanism to fail; it only pops up a little.


I thought about playing with the light until I read the 'Death' notice under the hood.

About $500.00 for a new light is the best price I've seen so far...

With a lot of care you can get the light apart and then repair the broken part with epoxy. They were not made to come apart, but i fooled with it long enough and actually fixed it myself. It takes a lot of time to do it though.
