Hello All,

I just bought a 98 F-150 that needs some minor body work. It was hit on the front driver side and the corner light and headlight took the brunt of the damage. I removed the headlamp and found that the plastic piece behind the headlights is broken. It stretches from driver side to passenger side and hold all 4 lights into place. I cannot seem to find this part anywhere. I don't even know what the proper name for it is. I have not gone to the dealer yet (and prefer not to) because I am sure it will cost alot more. Any thoughts?

 

Have you tried LMC trucks?

 

rockauto.com

 

Thanks for the reply. No, I had not checked there. I just did, and can not find that pice. Then again, im not really sure what to search for. This LMC site is awesome tho. I guess my bigger problem is that I do not know what to search for exactly. What is this piece called?

why dont you try a junk yard? maybe craigslist has somone parting out one? it will be cheaper, just a thought.

 

Thanks for all of your help guys. After searching for the radiator support (thanks to carbon) I found the part on a related LMC page (thanks to jhelrey). Looks like the name for this is "Grille reinforcement panel".

Thanks for all the help. I will look around (junkyard/CL) for a cheaper replacement.

 

i always get good deals on CL, so i always recommend that. lol

 

Yeah, there are so many people parting out their trucks/cars.
