Question 1999 3.2TL Headlights...

Here is a quicky. On a 1999 the low-beam headlights are a case inside a case kinda thing. Put it like this...on the 2002+ the headlights are clear (you can see the bulbs inside) but you can't on the 99-01. How do I change this on a 1999 so they are clear just as if I took a 02 headlight and stuck it on a 99. Thanks for viewing and posting. Cheers All!

Dont do it...

That plastic piece is what deflects the light. The 02-03 models have that condom looking bulb cover looking thingy that does the same effect as the lens in the 99-01 models...

Question

Is there a way to switch out the headlights with an 02 or 03 pair? Thanks All!

Not worth the time and effort to change our 99 front ends to 02' 03's, just my opinion though.
