Hey Guys, I Have A Request...

Does anyone know of a company that sells after-market headlight housings for a 2003 B2300 base? I know this is a Ranger forum, but this is just a rebadged Ranger and I'm hoping for a little help.

My truck was totaled and I had bought it back from my insurance company to repair and keep, since I love the truck so much. I'm talking to a body-guy and he's gonna order me in all the replacement parts and paint match them to the truck for me for $2,000, a $2600-some-odd bill anywhere else.

I'm looking for some aftermarket headlight assemblies that fit the Mazda pick-ups, since I want to keep it a Mazda and not make it a Ranger.

I am including a link to my album on Facebook for the Mazda for your perusal. Hope y'all don't bash on it too much lol.

2003 Mazda B2300; 2.3l 5-Speed 2wd

Mazda's don't have a big selection, have you looked on eBay already?

Yeah and I only seen a bunch of OEM replacements, which is probably what I'm gonna do. Unfortunately.

the mazda headlight housings are shorter in height than the ranger 1`s

if you are interested in a projector retrofit , try this kit

http://retro-solutions.net/product-i...G3-pid648.html

the projectors are designed to fit through the 9004/9007 bulb holes

you could always swap the front end to a ranger front end but it won't be as cheap as a new set of headlights lol
it is however an easy swap
