I have an 05 FXT and the lenses are starting to get not just hazy, but they seem to be cracking through as well.

Is there a reputable source to purchase just the lenses, and if not, is there a preferred couple of aftermarket brands for new replacements? I was thinking about new lenses and a projector retrofit, or new Depo housings.
No problem! There is a lot of mos information with lighting so I try to help when I can.

I also have an 03 XS that had the same issue. I replaced them with depo headlights and did a retrofit with Morimoto D2S projectors (4.0) with Osram CBI D2S bulbs and Morimoto 50 watt ballasts.

The quality of after market headlights is fine. I noticed the clear coating started chipping after 2-3 years which is typical for depo plastic lenses.

You can not purchase just lenses unfortunately.

I plan on sanding down and re-clearing my lights with a good 3m clear coat.

If you have any other questions of want a quote on an actual retrofit let me know. I am in CT about 1 hour from Springfield Mass.
