Smoked OE style headlamps

I just put these on my 08, replacing my stock HIDs. They look great, I used the silvania silver star ultra bulbs. My only gripe is that the lamps seem to be kinda hazy from the inside. Not a big deal but I'm just curious as to whether or not there is a fix. Thanks fellas

You took off your stock HIDs, and put on smoked lens headlights with halogen bulbs? Did I get that right?

Oh, nvm. You're a used car salesman, from Florida (of course) and you take pride in getting banned from other forums. Makes sense now. Carry on.

If this is the case, I would be very interested to know how you changed the headlight wiring.
IIRC, stock HIDs are wired differently.

The plug is the same. I just had to break off a tab on the new bulb sockets.
