Re:
Livingston freight is Searail They are a good company all around in my opinion. I have moved hundreds of vehicles with them in the past with no recent incidents.

Re: SHipping Company?
I now choose to go to BC and pick up the vehicles myself, this was due to a very bad experience with Livingston. Had some damage to vehicles when my container was crushed by another container falling on it, freak accident I guess. Insurance adjuster looked at it and said damage was minimal due to excellent loading and securing of vehicles in Japan. Vehicles had to be unloaded and reloaded into a different container in BC as the original container was unfit for transport to Winnipeg. All of this was delaying the shipping into early winter. I asked (at my expense) to have a mechanic check the vehicles antifreeze and either strengthen or drain it entirely if not strong enough for -30C. Livingston said they had people that could do this and charged me accordingly. When the vehicles arrived in Winnipeg, the vehicles had extensive body damage. My pictures of the damage were taken while unloading the vehicles, and did not match the photos taken by the insurance adjuster in BC. The crew at Livingston had caused more damage handling the vehicles than was caused by the container being crushed. The vehicles all had ruined engines and radiators, as they were frozen solid. Livingston had simply poured pure antifreze in the overflow tanks, the engines and rads were left with pure water in them. Livingston then told us that their representative who had originally sold us insurance, should not have sold us the policy, and wasn't going to honor it. It took over a year to settle with them, and they would not do anything until it was slated to go to court. Then they finally owned up and paid a settlement out of court. Of course, this is only one bad experience, it seems others have had good results with Livingston. I however will not give them the opportunity to do this again.

I know Rocky Mountain Imports and Coumbs County Auto are carrying the replacement E-coded lenses for around $400, not sure if anyone is still selling the complete light assemblies that were around the $1000 mark.
