im looking to replace all my bulbs (high and low). the only problem is i have hazy headlights with water on the inside.any ideas how to fix the water on the inside without having to buy new headlamps.
 
You can dry out the headlights with a blowdryer..And are you sure the haze is on the inside??..if its on the outside you can always wet sand if there really bad..And use some plastic polish.New Depot headlights are on ebay 50-60bucks buyitnow.plus shipping you'll have around 130-140 total in them..I have them on my car and just did the hightower mod to them looks great.Depot headlights are a OEM knockoff dont let it fool you there still good headlights.
 
It's the chrome piece inside the headlight that is removeable you simple strip the chrome off that and clear coat it of paint it black and clear it..

PM parkedcar here on CEG "private message"..Yes i have some pictures i took the other night bad quailty tho.But oh well car still looks nice..I'll post them when i load them to photobucket..Probally will be in the pictures and videos forum.
 
I wouldnt reccomend doing the lower eyelids just the upper but you can if you want..If your car was black i would say do the lower as well.But it would look nicer if you painted it from the inside if you car was black..But its not that much cash to buy some vinyl from Parkedcar to do your eyelids.And i would do them in silver for now since your cars silver.
 
If you wanna do the hightower mod yes you paint the removeable chrome piece black..If your car was black i would say paint your eyelids on the inside of your headlight..Both upper and lower..But sinces its silver i would say just do the upper eyelids on the outside of the light.
 
wonderin if i did the hightower mod if i could use silver frost to match the car or not...also if i could wat would happen if i painted the whole inside of the headlight
