Any of the vendors, or ebay, or post in the parts section here on the forum (you'll probably get your best deal here) or many of the corvette salvage yards. Just google it.

Yeah, X2. I had a really fun time getting my headlights to work in my '82. The guys here helped me out in a big way. Some food for thought, though. I had alot of the pieces and thought it would be cheaper to just get the stuff I needed. It turns out I saved about $100 over a complete new assembly from Eckler's. I should've just bit the bullet and dropped the $700 for a new assembly. It would've been easier and MUCH faster.

Good luck!
