Just to be certain. It is a haze and not moisture right?... And I agree I wouldn't try puffing the inside

That is an option.
Might also consider doing a projector retrofit based off those.
Bi-Xenon projectors are really the key to the absolute best light output, trust me I know
Also, unlike reflectors, with projectors you can pack 55w HIDs and make the sun envious

Unfortunately, the Sedan didn't come with projectors until 07 when they changed the body style. But even if they had, it wouldn't do the OP much good as 05-06 sedan headlights are not interchangeable with the 03-04 ones.

You would have to get an aftermarket H1 HID kit. It doesn't work with oem hids

Don't mean to threadjack but do you know if i can put 55w hid bulbs on a ballast that's not 55w?. Im not sure how many watts my hid kit is but im gonna install projectors soon and i think i need new bulbs because the driver side bulb sometimes i have to turn the headlights on and off several times in order for it to cut on.

Bulbs are more than likely the same. It's normally the ballast that determines wattage.

So it doesn't matter what wattage bulbs i get? They might not be the same brand as the ballast
