If it's the outside lens:

Meguire's PlastX -rub it in, leave it for a minute, buff it off. It removes oxidation (from heat/UV/saltwater) and makes yellow lenses clear again.

You should be able to find it in an auto parts store for about $8.

If it's the inside, clean them the same way, and then silicone the seals.

I've tried covering the headlight with foil wrap and used high beams for a couple minutes. it totally dried out the moisture inside the headlamp.

if you want to replace them, there's usually members selling OEM headlights in the Marketplace section. brand new from a dealership will cost a ton. There are many different styles to choose from on ebay.com
