I accidentally hit the headlight on my car with a basketball...the light works, but the glass is just broken and completely smashed. It's a 2005 Volvo XC70. How much approximately is this going to cost me? Thanks.How much does replacing a headlight cost?The full assembly (with bulbs) around $300 used. Without bulbs maybe $200.

Here's some good news, if it's expensive, your accident would be covered by your collision coverage. It would be an %26quot;at fault%26quot; accident but it could save you well over a grand to report. More good news, you should be able to find a generic replacement that looks just like the real thing. Keystone automotive is a big aftermarket headlight supplier - contact them.

The headlights now come as complete assemblies that you have to replace entirely in 1 go.



On parts.com the headlight assembly costs $763.10, and this is a discount from $1073 MSRP.



Then you need to add on the labor to switch it out.

I'm not sure if you can just get and replace the broken glass part by itself.
