i have a 1995 Mercedes C280 and would like to buy new headlight lenses. Where would i go about finding these lenses? How much do they cost? Does anyone know where i can get them for cheap? Mine are kind of worn out and have a dirty tint to them after the years, i want to restore that new look! PLEASE RESPOND SOON!

I dont think you need to replace your headlight lenses if they just look "dirty". take em to a detail shop and have em steam cleaned so they look brand new. Or if you really need to buy new ones, I think I saw one the other day for sale on ebay, I'd try looking there

call your detail shop for an estimate.

if they do exterior detail, just get a quote for steam cleaning your headlight lenses~

I agree with the steam cleaning idea, but if you must have new ones they can be bought from Bekkers for about $90 each.
