do they put a reflector inside the headlight piece?

cuz if they dont, 125 is pretty expensive to just heat and remove. oh and seal.

No they don't but the $120 I paid was great compared to the immense pain in the ass people have reported with the job. I read a few issues of Import Tuner in the showroom for about 2 hours and then drove away. Well worth it.
