Ebay headlight lenses.

Hey,
I cracked one of my xenon headlight lens so I was wondering for those who purchased those aftermarket ebay headlight, would it be possible to transplant those lens into my oem xenon? Would it sit flush with the headlight housing?

Pre face lift Xenon headlamps are a bit difficult to remove even when heated up.....( 02'-04' ). ....all of a sudden my typing is slanted...what's up with that ? lol.

If you have the projector style from 05'/06' you could always find a used HD light housing with a bad ignitor for this project and then you would be sure to have a water tight seal and uniformity of lens appearance.
