I have just bought an 03 SE with the HID's. The one side must be older because it is a little hazy/cloudy. I tried to use a few of the restorer kits out there but the results still arnt pleasing. I was hoping someone could tell me if another non-HID lens will fit the housing on the HID's. I figured I'd use the oven trick and replace the lens with a non-HID lens just because they are cheaper on ebay. Any knowledge would help, thanks.

 

Just try to find a used OEM one, those aftermarket lamps/lens don't last that long.

 

Wet sand (600-2500 grit) then polish with orbital/variable speed polisher with good polishing compounds.

Ebay aftermarket lens are not as good as OEM, but with a good spray of clear UV protection it should last few years under the sun.

 

Will any of the OEM non-HID's fit? maybe from a 5th gen?

 

Nope, the 5th gen housing is slightly different in size from the 5.5. One is bigger than the other, if i remember correctly, 5.5 is bigger than 5

 

Which side? I have a headlight lens sitting in my room
