Headlight Lens source

Asked by rbcross Feb 15, 2012 at 10:53 AM about the 2009 Saab 9-3 Aero AWD Sedan

Question type: Shopping & Pricing

Is there a source for the lens only ? Do we really have to buy the whole assembly?

Apparently, they wanted like $800 to do one side, ridiculous!

Are your lenses foggy or cracked? I tried to find lenses as well, and the only place that sells them is the dealer and they quoted me the $800 as well... SO I will have to deal with my foggy lenses!

I found them here for cheaper... and I know there are some aftermarket lenses you can buy as well (that are supposed to have a better light dispersion pattern or something...) Link : http://www.partsforsaabs.com/default.php? cPath=40_97_329_102

I had great success (though it was about an hour each side) with the 3m lens restorer; basically you grind away with rough, then finer sandpaper, and then there's a buffer/lens solution, and they're like new. It takes some work with a drill (the sandpaper attaches and you make a dozen passes with each grade of sandpaper -- wet sanding!
