what to do with these
I'm kind of in a slump cause I'm not too sure what to do with these headlights..if you look at the pictures you'll see the marks and scratches that are on the lens of the headlight..problem is that the passenger headlights marks are from the inside..it kinda looks like how plastic would if it was melting. I'm ok with buying new headlights but I don't really wanna cause I had these blacked out...would any of you might know where I can buy the lens from if I have to or know what's the best solution to these annoying marks/scratches?

except you don't have to take the headlights out. Just lay some tape around it.

Oh I didn't see that. How do you know that it's on the inside? Maybe it's just oxidation and looks like its on the inside but actually on the outside. I don't see your headlights getting so hot to the point that it melts the plastic. I would suggest trying Meguiar's Plastx on the outside first. Product is amazing at removing oxidation and crap of the lens. Many people can vouch for this product. If you use it and you see a slight improvement, I'd go ahead and wet sand it then hit it with a polish and plastx to renew it. GL!
my headlights were close to yours and I was very close to taking them apart but DONT DO IT. Save yourself the hassle and buff and polish them using a kit, more than likely this will fix the hazzing.

you can't tell in the pics but if you look @ the second one right under the red line and above the HID projector, you can somewhat see the marks from the inside.
well yeah that'll fix whats on the outside...i have no other choice than to open em up for the inside

I have mint left and right lenses. PM me, we'll discuss and I'll send you pics.
I have 2011 LED headlights so I don't need my old headlights anymore.
