[Fabian972]

Okay guys i need to find a replacement lens for my 97 gst headlamps i like my OEM headlights but i am not trying to pay the dealers outrages prices for a new head lamp so i figure if i can just find the lens cover to replace the one on the headlights...anyone know of a place i can find just the lens

Hi. Im certain you cannot buy the lens seperate from the housing. What you can do is buy oem style aftermarket headlights which will run you about half the price of oem but fit like crap. You can go to the local junkyard and hope to get lucky. And your last option, You can try ebay or dsmtrader. Good luck.

Mother's metal polish and elbow grease works great if they aren't totally ruined

get some rubbing compound and a buffer. pour a little bit of rubbing compound on the highlight and then buff the head lights until the haze is gone. my votech teacher told use to do that to make them look new again and sure enough it worked.

my driver side was looking nasty as hell with weird lines going through it. I bought maquires plastic cleaner over at advance auto and it did a good job cleaning the outside. there is however still some left on the inside but I'm going to buy black projectors later. I just didn't want the ones with the halo on them and thats all i can find on ebay. I would love to have OEM headlights with a black back in stead of the stock look.

Then paint it, much cheaper..

Mother's Aluminum Polish. Works miracles. Here is a before and after picture of mine, and this is with only like 4 minutes worth of rubbing. Check it out here - My picture is on post #3...

eBay for replacement lights, the Tech Forum for six articles about polishing the lenses, or the regular forums for another twenty. Which the search would have quickly revealed.
