Market analysis

Model year matters too: 2016 units carry the lowest median at $129, while 2015 tops the table at $250. Parts from 2008–2017 are interchangeable, so if the 2016 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 10 compatible years.

Against comparable vehicles, the Mitsubishi Lancer sits 67% below the Toyota RAV4 ($458), 62% below the Ram 1500 ($400), and 82% below the Ford Explorer ($836) for the same part. The “similar vehicles” cards below open each comparison guide.

Buying a used headlight assembly: what to check

  1. Check for lens hazing and moisture intrusion, the two most common headlight defects.
  2. Verify halogen vs HID vs LED. The same year often has multiple lighting packages.
  3. Confirm all mounting tabs are intact; broken tabs mean loose, misaimed lights.
  4. Buy in pairs when prices allow. Mismatched lens clarity is easy to spot.
