Default R/T Coupe Headlight Question

I have an 03 R/T Coupe, and the headlight housing is completely fogged over, so i've been looking online to get some new ones. My question is, will the Sedan headlight housing fit on the coupe?

Not sure if they're interchangeable or not...
Have you looked into "cleaning" your existing lights? It takes some time and elbow grease, but has the potential to save a lot of $. There are cleaning kits in the stores (I did mine with a kit from walmart with acceptable results), as well as others using more and finer grades of sandpaper and plastic sealer.

The above thread has some awesome information if you've got the time to do it.

i dont think the sedan and coupe lights are interchangeable especially if u have the r/t. i remember reading somewhere that the only thing similar between an rt coupe and a four door is a few exterior styling features. and im 90% sure that there arnt any aftermarket options as far as headlights go for the rt coupe, so if u buy it will have to be OEM

i had the same problem it was so bad it was really starting to effect my night view but advanced auot had a sale on lens cleaner and it took about 2 hours for both lights to get completely clean with low grades of sand paper but worth it instead of paying $200+ for new headlights. Now you would think they were new

Just to answer your question. NO, sedan headlights do not fit into the coupe.

Do not use the sand paper method to clean the headlight its doesnt work that well. I did it on my headlights and it was a waste of time. I got Meguiar's PlastX and it is the best thing i have ever used to clean he haze off my headlights. It took off the haze in about 20 minutes with taping off the area and then buffing with a buffer wheel.

Wet sanding worked just fine for my headlights.
