Default Broken headlight (RHS) on MY00

Hi folks. Picked up an MY00 WRX back in April and I joined up here shortly afterwards.

Earlier this evening I was driving home and the vehicle in front of me flicked up a stone which has hit my right headlight, breaking the glass. Was travelling at 80kph when the stone hit, the resulting broken glass bounced up my windscreen and has left some small chips in it.



Don't mind the chipped front bar and rusty stone chip on the corner of the bonnet, it's a seven year old car and I didn't expect it to be immaculate when I bought it.

As you can see, the headlight is completely fucked but the light still works (a small victory). Obviously I'm not going to be driving it until I get the headlight replaced, been some wet weather here this week and I'm not taking any chances with moisture getting in there.

Anyone here in Perth who might know where I can obtain an MY00 right hand side headlight on short notice? Does anybody happen to have a spare one lying around? I'll bloody come and buy it from you! I'm not particularly after a brand new one, Subaru parts would charge me an arm and a leg anyway. I'm down in Rockingham, I'll be checking out local wreckers on Saturday but I'm not confident that I'll find anything useful.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Lance

Seal it with that clear book covering see through shit in the meantime.....should help to keep some moisture out.
