Hi,

If I were you I would try one of the restore kits. I have used the 3M kit that you can buy at Advance, Autozone, maybe even Walmart for around $18. I used it o my 90 244 headlights. Both were very yellow and cloudy. They give you enough paper for your electric drill that you will have some left over for later. My lenses had come unglued so I did the repair with the lenses off the car. But you can do it with them on the car, just tape things off with layers of newspaper and masking tape.

I think it would be worth a try considering $$ for assemblies or the hassle/risk of prying the lenses from the assembly.

Hope that helps,

Travis
