new and better light assemblies

my 2001 grand am has the famous water in the lens problem and I just want to replace the whole housings. does anyone know of a website that sell some for my car or maybe a place to look????

hello ltolf1, being a newer car u might hav to goto the dealer, or find a reputable body shop in your neck of the woods and they'll surly be able to get them for a cheaper price than the stealershits. Still they arnt cheap.
Also, you might try taking the headlight assbly out, remove the bulbs and try to drain the H2O. Maybe even let them dry out for a day, and see if H2O returns. I'm not sure why condisation builds up in there, just another wonderful gm product...

Hi friends... My headlight assemblies on my 2000 GT1 also had condensation in them, but I actually caused it myself in the car wash; too forceful of a water stream, I think.
Anyways, I got rid of that condensation by letting them gradually air-dry themselves. Now, you're gonna laugh here but hey.. it worked for me.
You know that black rubber gasket that goes around the outside of the headlight? Well, that was where the water got in on me.
I took a few pieces of popsicle sticks (aynthing would work) and I lifted that rubber gasket enough to wedge the sticks in there between the headlight and the gasket..... to create a ventilation type thing. When I had a few vents created, I drove my car for a day in order to let as much fresh air to get inside that assembly as possible.
Well, it worked great.....all the condensation dried and evaporated.
So I removed the popsicle sticks; and the rubber gasket molded itself back into its' proper position. I am now more careful with spraying a forceful water stream while at the car wash. Also note.. I don't get water in there from heavy rains, luckily... Only a forceful stream at the car wash. You probably have a different scenario than me, but it is something you could try.

Hope this might help a bit... Hey, you've got nothing to loose by trying..
Also, I was able to find many Grand Am replacement headlights on E-Bay. I didn't order mine yet because I dried out my assemblies, but I will replace mine maybe next year.

Good luck... Take care.

EDIT >>>>> After re-reading my response, I should have mentioned that once my headlights dried out, I didn't have too much fading or corrosion in them at all... They are faded, but I can live with that until next year when I buy new ones.
Yours could be too far gone to try the above fix...

One thing, if u pry on those to much, you will end up with two pieces. I've had them pop the lens right off. To seal the lamps if they hav leaks use some silicone to seal them up. Maybe some tape to hold it while drying.
Most water in the lamps is condisation, but i hav seen the cracks around the lens leak when at the wash or in the rain. Water will blow the bulbs if it touches them hot. Be carefull on those Ebay sales, u might get some used crap worse than what you hav now.
