    Unhappy Any Suggestion for a Broken Tail Light??

    Hi guys,

    So the lawn guy crashed his riding lawnmower into my baby. Any suggestions on where to purchase a rear tail light for a good deal? Anything i should know if i was to trying to fix it myself? It does not only the plastic, but the whole unit most likely.

    thanks
    Fas

    I'd contact the parts guy at your dealer, and have him write up an estimate for the damages.

    Your lawn guys must be different than our lawn guys here in Texas, Bob.

    Unless Your Lawn guy is real cheap and maybe your grandson. Then you might want to fix it yourself and chalk it up to stuff happens.

    Good Luck!

    (I guess that our "lawn maintenance specialists" are different. We have so many lawyers up here, that nobody is let onto a homeowner's property, unless they can show proof of contractor's insurance.)
