Default Fooled around under the hood

Yesterday I fooled around under the hood and had a wonderful time getting my secondary hood latch to behave. Probably due to the extreme cold we have been having and the rust on the actual latch itself. Somehow my son got the latch to work and slammed the hood down!!!

Hi I am new here, but decided it is time to join in.

Today, I replaced the drivers side fender and the header panel on my 2001 Jeep Cherokee.

Whenever I can locate a headlight bucket for the driver side, I intend to install my new Hella headlights!

Any suggestions where I can locate the bucket? None of the local scrap yards have one here, and from what I gather the older buckets (pre 1996) won't fit the drivers side.

Thanks for the welcome.

No, those are the bezels. I already bought one of those.

This link shows the buckets, but not for my year.

Just curious, do you know if this would include the thin bracket that goes on the front of the headlight and screws to the bucket/seat? Sorry the website is kind of confusing as to what is included.

I believe the one I am asking about is number 17 on the diagram.

The retaining ring? If so, P/N 04897198AA
http://www.mopardealerparts.com/p/Je...4897198AA.html

Looks to be between $35-50 depending on the site. There must be a cheaper option available. There may even be a member with a parts vehicle who would mail you one for the cost of shipping

Ouch! That does seem quite high, even more than the seat!

I will keep looking.

I am motivated and willing to pay via Paypal or whatever if anybody has either item they want to sell me. Shipping would be to Missouri.

Thanks for your assistance.
