Headlight Opaque/Foggy. Need Advice



Hey everyone.



I hope I've posted this in the correct forum section. If not, please forgive me. I couldn't find the troubleshooting/problems section.



Anyways, I own an 05 Toyota Camry, of which the headlight (driver side) has gotten foggy. It's certainly not as transparent as the passenger side light. At first I wasn't sure why one was foggy and the other wasn't, but then I took a closer look at the foggy light and noticed a small crack on the outside casing. I believe this crack has allowed moisture to enter the light. I've heard of people restoring their headlights with special DIY kits, but I've decided to take the route of simply replacing the light with an aftermarket light from an online store. I found two sites that I particularly liked, but I'm unsure of whether or not they are legitimate businesses. Furthermore, I don't want to fall prey to a scam. Has anyone purchased from either of these sites and can verify that they are a legitimate business? Thanks in advance.

there are downsides to aftermarket headlights...... many times the fitment isnt quite as good and the big one is the reflectors are crap..... the beam pattern wont be nearly as good as stock
