Corvette C8 LED headlights left and right *Like New*
C8 Corvette LED headlights as “Like New” implies they are “take-offs” from low-mileage vehicles or pristine insurance-quality units. As of early 2026, these are among the most sought-after exterior components for front-end collision repairs.
1. Market Valuation (March 2026)
The price for “Like New” or “Mint” condition pairs on the secondary market remains strong due to the high cost of dealer-ordered units ($1,400+ per side).
-
Individual Unit: $750 – $995 (depending on the presence of internal modules).
-
Complete Pair (LH & RH): $1,500 – $1,950.
-
Pricing Factor: Units that include the factory LED control modules (ballasts) command a 20% premium over “bare” housings.
2. Critical Condition Checklist for “Like New” Status
To maintain your reputation for luxury quality at Buy Mustang parts Ltd, each unit should be inspected for:
-
Lens Integrity: No “pitting” or “sandblasting” from road debris. Even minor nicks disqualify a unit from being “Like New.”
-
Mounting Tabs: All three primary tabs (Top, Outer, Inner) must be original and un-repaired. Plastic welding on tabs is a common “refurbished” trick but significantly lowers the value.
-
Internal Bezel: Ensure no “fogging” or moisture stains are visible on the internal black or chrome bezels.
-
Wiring Pins: Check for bent pins in the 14-pin main connector.
3. OEM Part Numbers & 2026 Compatibility
GM has consolidated several part numbers. For the 2024–2026 model years, the primary numbers to look for are:
| Position | Primary OEM # (2024-2026) | Common Supersessions |
| Left (Driver) | #86516602 | 85135936, 85545922, 84826266 |
| Right (Passenger) | #86516581 | 85869243, 85545923, 84826267 |
Note on Leveling: Ensure you distinguish between units with or without Ground Clearance Control (Front Lift). Units for cars with the adjustable front lift often carry specific leveling sensors that are not present on base models.
