If you don't mind your headlights turning super yellow within a few months and the headlights not fitting perfectly in then go ahead but if i were you i would never buy aftermarket exterior parts they are just super cheap quality and look horrible when mount on your car. I recently changed my hood to an aftermarket hood got it painted and mounted looks really really bad biggest mistake i have ever done one side had a bigger gap then the other doesn't close right just bad bad bad lol.

I just remembered one of the reasons why I wanted to replace them. I think I have a crack on one of them, because I got moisture in of them for some reason. Idk if its because of the wires of the hid kit that didn't let the boot cover the back side. lately I haven't seen any moisture in them so I'll give it a shot and resurface them.

I would check www.rockauto.com for the headlights. Still over $100, but probably alot better than the ebay ones and you dont have to polish them. I had to order one from them after my passenger-side light ate a chunk of rubber from a semi.

Polish up your OEM one's....
Trust me, i had TYC within 1.5years it was yellow [the chrome yellowed] and it looked like ****. So i bought a new used OEM headlight and polished it.
Honestly, just wetsand them once, and polish them every 3-6mos as required....

I used a kit to clean mine, used 800 grit then 2000 then 3000. I wet sanded every time and it worked just fine! Only tip I would suggest is that when you get to 3000, set a pattern that you will sand (like up and down) and press lightly. Go in the same fluent motion and don't apply too much polish. I applied too much and it made it look more hazy! So I just used a dry paper towel to clean them off. Hope this helps!
