I hit some black ice and went through a guard rail last Friday morning outside of Ann Arbor, MI. I came out with a dime sized bruise and a pin sized hole in my hand from broken glass. I got extremely lucky.

Dnewma,
I'd be interested in one of your headlights.
Can you get it for me, or is it junkyard
property now?

At this point, it's insurance company property. I had a somewhat difficult time getting my stereo out that was not even insured by them. Sorry.

Yes, I did. I made out OK, financially. I paid $20k for the car, drove it for 2.5 years and got 16375 out of it. I can't complain about that.

I don't think so Roger. I can try to find out where the insurance sends it once everything is straightned out. Only the driver side is good anyway. A few others have already asked about the headlights.

Ouch...that looks like it hurt. I always thought the guard rail was supposed to hook onto your car and and bring it to a somewhat gentle stop when your car hits it. Glad your ok and glad your insurance company was so nice to you.
