I live in IL so if anyone knows anywhere that I can find cheap 98/99 headlights that would be great. Or, anyone know somewhere online. I'm NOT looking to pay 80-100 dollars for each though. Thanks! lemme kno =]

Why is it that you want to replace them? Are they just foggy? You could just try restoring them instead of dropping big bucks for new ones.

Chicago has junkyards everywhere, I've had luck at City Auto for a Avalon drivers side window.

98/99 Headlights are all clear like "see through" the 95-97 headlights are built hazy and whatnot. I've had a REALLY hard time finding an avalon in a junkyard. If anyone ever finds me let me know asap ha. I need some parts here and there

there was a 98 Avalon at U-Pull-It in Aurora, Illinois two weeks ago. I bought my new headlights from a ebay store called D&H auto. They are located here in Naperville, Illinois and opted for local pick up. they were 80 somthing a headlight. I did a headlight Conversion to my 97 Avalon so if you need the 98-99 headlight brackets or the 97 lenses let me know!

hey just FYI, there is a total of 3 1st Gen Toyota Avalons over at U-Pull-it one of which has the headlights you were looking for. are you also doing a headlight Conversion? be sure you use the old black plastic headlights bracket. the 98-99 bracket wont fit. I am also ordering the clear corner lights without the orange reflecter inside from a junkyard in Australia, it kinda looks weird when they don't match. its not bad don't get me wrong, but it is a little foggy compared to the newer style lens

I've got used headlites from '98 Avalon. Some of the plastic frame in the rear is broken but the lites test fine. I can send you pics if you're still interested.
