I need clear headlight lens covers for a 2002 Hyundai Sonata.
I'm checking online, but only see the whole headlight assembly, which i want to avoid if possible.

Does anyone know if the lenses are sold separately or would I just have to buy the whole assembly to replace them?

Thanks.

It's pretty rare that you'd be able to find a lens cover as opposed to the entire assembly. They are not normally sold seperately as replacing the entire assembly is quick, easier, and more cost effective then removing a lens cover and properly (all sealed up and shit) replacing it.

If you replace the whole assembly you're gonna have to change the headlight fluid as well. It could get pricey.

and if you're doing that you might as well rotate the wiring harnesses too... I mean you want even wear to maximise the life of them.

Can't replace just the lens, as it would lead to leaking and fogging up of the lens. If u buy aftermarket, expect them to turn hazy and yellow within a year. Stick with the OEM. have a body shop order them for u or any auto repair place at their shop cost from the dealer, which is a huge price reduction if u have a friend in the field.

that's what's happened to my current ones which i believe are OEM.
there's no way to clean them right?

i have to check with the dealer, as i still may be under warranty. also gotta replace/fix the back light assemblies as they're leaking water into the trunk. :\

Sam, yes you can 'clean' them but it is somewhat involving. I have done this with mine and it turned out great but does require some maintenance. It's a matter of actually sanding the lens, polishing it, and then protecting it. It's pretty inexpensive too.

Take a look here and see if it's your cup o' tea:
