Headlight Lens Compatibility

So, I have a bit of an odd problem. I'm trying to restore my car as close to factory as I can after the previous owner mangled it with awful custom wiring that shorted and almost caused a fire, and other wonderful little surprises.

Currently I'm working on the headlights, and my question is this. On the '03-'04 sedan models, are the lens covers the same between the HID and halogen versions? I have a nice, clear lens on a halogen casing, and I can acquire an HID casing with a scuffed and broken lens fairly cheaply. Can I combine the two for a working and nice looking set?

Additionally, are the outer casings the same between the HIDs and halogens? I know the reflectors are different, but if you have an HID reflector, can that be removed and put into a halogen casing?

Thanks for any help you can provide!

Excellent, that's one question down, and should make things quite a bit easier. Now I just need to know about the casing. Thanks!
