Is your quote fair?
A quote between $80 and $254 is inside the band where half of all Chevrolet Silverado 1500 headlight assembly replacements landed. Below it is not automatically a bargain (aftermarket halogen housing on an older vehicle, easy access); above it is not automatically gouging (OEM LED assembly, bumper removal required, both sides replaced for matching) — but both ends deserve a question.
What moves the price
Halogen vs. LED — LED and adaptive assemblies cost multiples of a halogen housing.
Access — many vehicles need the bumper cover off.
Pairs — a new housing next to a hazed one looks mismatched — many owners do both.
