I need some help PLEASE, I bought a used 91 Honda Prelude for a hooptie car. I need a drivers side tailight REALLY BAD!! I have till the 10 SEP to get one or I have to register it NONOP. I've checked Autozone, Discount Auto parts, E-bay (outbidded with 5 seconds left :x ), a few other places with no luck. I will pay a $25 finder fee plus the cost of the light. Any help would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks in advance
Val

Found a guy on ebay parting out his BA4 Prelude (should be up to 92) - is yours a german/european model or US? Do you have a pic of the passenger side tail light for comparison?

Edit: yup, confirmed, he has a '91 ...

Also, how about these: http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie ... 7995202165

or, you could buy this for currently 200€ and throw the car away, just keep the lights ;)

Garry,
All I need is the driver side tailight and an ashtray(that's not so important). It's German spec & 91. I'm at work right now so I can't check the link you provided. I'll look at it tonight when I get home.

Thanks
Val

Had no luck finding a new one Honda was going to be the last place I went to due to cost. It went for $36.
