    NEW (even possible?) Headlamp Assembly

    Wondering where to buy a new OEM Headlamp Assembly or just the cover.

    Cover is so foggy.

    Any one have a link to a seller or spares (or relatively new replacement parts)?

    If it's on the outside, headlight restoration might be in order. Kits at your local auto parts store. "Wipe New" also claims the same.

    If it's on the inside, I have to wonder if the unit can be separated, cleaned, and resealed?

    Any "headlight restoration" will always tend to look bad in short order--if only because the UV protectant that was previously on the lens, is now gone. Getting some type of coating/protectant on the lens...after you clean it...will help with longevity.

    On another note, mine were also starting to go hazy when I got it. Rather than cleaning them, I installed some CF light covers & brite-*** LED's (mostly to counteract the light attenuation from the covers). Works like a dream.
