Trying to find Clear lense for headlights (just the top part)

My headlights began to haze do to me blacking them out. Is there anyway I can get just the clear lense that goes on top of the housing separately? Called Infiniti and they only sell the complete housing (for $1000) or new headlights ($1200). Any ideas?

just take them apart and clean them out if you already opened them once. no need to replace them. should be able to just wipe them down with some polish and try to seal them better this time. if not, very light wet sanding can restore them but i doubt its that bad.

No luck, I need clear replacements also, and only way you'll get them is by purchasing a headlight, you can look on eBay, sometimes broken headlights sell for dirt cheap with clean lenses.

If theres drops of water it's probably just moisture, just wipe it off with a clean microfiber, if water spots don't come off, wash the lens with some soap and water, use ur hand instead of a sponge. The back end of the lens is easily prone to scratching, it's coated with clear coat and once that clear coat is cracked or scratched, it can easily come off making your lens look like ****. Do not use ANYTHING but a clear microfiber to wipe them down from the inside, no polish, no windex, nothing ! You will ruin your lens.

Since you are right around the corner from me, I'd be glad to take a look at them and see if we could fix them. If not, I may have a set that I'd be willing to sell you if you want to go back to stock or near stock. PM me if interested.
