a few questions

[white04alero]

alright. i have had some questions about my alero for a while, and i figure its time i ask.

1- i need a new piece to my front end. it's the piece the headlights clip in to. what is this called? Header Panel where do i get one? Bone Yard can i use one from a GA or are these alero-specific? Yes, Alero specific.

2- when buying wheel bearings, is there a specific brand i should avoid? Avoid Ebay brand is there a specific brand i should try to find? how much do quality wheel bearings run? can i just buy bearings like i do for my 78 pickup, or do i have to buy a new hub assembly? Hub assemblies.

3- when replacing struts, can i use the factory springs from the factory struts? Yes do new struts come with new springs? If you buy them that way is there a specific brand that is preferred? are Monroe and Gabriel good brands? is there a brand to avoid? how much do struts usually run?

4- i have a scuff in my headlight from where my sister backed in to me. we fixed the body panels, and got them repainted, but i was too cheap to buy a new light. how do i take the scuff out of the plastic? theres got to be a way to do it.

5- i had close to 15 questions i was going to ask, and now that it's time to type them out, i cant remember any of them except for 1-4. when i think of them, i'll put them here.

thanks in advance, and sorry if some of these questions seem elementary, but i need to ask 'em.
