93 Dodge Grand Caravan Headlight
Has anyone replaced their 93 Dodge Grand Caravan Headlight housings?
Mine are the original ones and they are not very clear. They have somewhat yellowed so the bulbs cannot project the light very well at night.
I have seen some on eBay for around $75.00 and Amazon for $90.00 for a pair and it includes new halogen bulbs.
They are new aftermarket parts, not remanufactured or rebuilt. They are manufactured to align with Original Equipment specifications and act as a direct replacement for the factory part, not as an upgrade or improvement. They are supposed to fit and function as the original factory part did.
The price seems reasonable, but I don't know what quality they might be.
I would also like to know if the bulbs could be replaced with and aftermarket LED?

I usually look for factory ones in good shape, they do come up on EBAY quite frequently. Haven't heard anything on the aftermarkets.
Another option is to grab some fine cut compound and a buffer. I've buffed van headlights out before, they usually come out very nice, you just have to be careful not to burn through the lights.
I'm not sure about LEDs, I run Bi-Xenon HID kits in both my vans. I love the HIDs, they produce great light, and aimed properly, don't bother other drivers. I've had very good luck with the Xentec 9004 Bi-Xenon Kit. I usually go with a 5 or 6k as they don't have the blue hue of the higher ratings. If you drive in rain or snow often, a 3k kit will produce the yellow hue that works excellent in adverse weather.
