My passenger side headlight assembly was shattered by a hit and run driver. I need to replace the entire assembly.

Hello. Here's the information on how to do that in the attached images. Pulled directly from AllData. I hope that it tells you everything that you need. Tip: Do not touch the headlamp bulb glass when installing the new bulbs. If you get finger oils on them, it can create hot spots on the bulb, which can cause them to burn out prematurely. If you do happen to touch them, use some rubbing alcohol on it to clean the oils off.

Good luck and let me know if you need anything else.
