I've had to buy both taillight assemblies for my 07 Coupe. One was from a minor parking lot incident where I was backed into on the DS rear. The PS rear was damaged by the body shop during the repair when the taillight assembly was tightened too tight & cracked during re-assembly of rear bumper.

Anyway, I use a search engine of auto salvage yards across the country to locate parts I need. I found both taillights that way for my XFire. Here's the link to the search engine: GetUsedParts. These salvage yards are all hooked up like a network and stay in touch with each other for parts. You'll start getting eMails from various salvage yards once you submit your request.

I had a 1993 SSGT that was backed into and it took me over 7 months to locate a viable donor car to replace the front bumper. One of the guys that responded to my original parts request helped me locate the lower front bumper. He was in Upstate NY and found the donor car in Colorado. Paid him a $100 'finder's fee'. Well worth it.
