My wifes' 1999 Lexus RX300 has the infamous headlights which are horribly cloudy and dull. Polishing or correcting the current covers is not an option I am going buy the replacement units on line and have my local shop replace them for which they have quoted me $145 labor for both.

My budget is $190 max for both and question is what is the best source for the headlights? Keep in mind that this is for the entire units (.right and left)including the cover/housing, not just bulbs.

I've noticed that on some of that model. Curious why the normal process of correcting them doesn't apparently work, since I always assumed their just super-plastic like all the others?

Do you have halogen bulbs or HIDs??
Locate yourself a set of Spyder brand healdlight housing. They are some of the better aftermarket replacements.

I replaced both of mine for a Toyota Highlander from Amazon. They were a perfect fit and great quality. I paid around $100 per. The following link was good for replacement of some of the clips I also had to replace.
