Help with new headlights

I have an 01 3.0 and have done a lot of physical upgrades such as cross drilled rotors, bilstein shocks, and the 4.6 20" staggered wheels, car looks and rides reat.

BUT I still have the old ass scratched up foggy dead looked head light asymblys.

I have the HID Xenon stock lights.

Question is.. I want to replace the entire head light piece. I want the halo rings in blue, and the euro look.
Can the ones on ebay work with the HID Xenons I have? they all say comes with bulbs. Will the ballists fit in that?

Here is the one I am talking about.

if you just want to make the outer lense look new again do this.

I would not replace your factory headlights.

get an aftermarkert angle eye setup, bake your headlights, open them up and take out the orange corners

Sorry, I don't have the answers you're looking for but I think you can get better quality & looks from other places. I think there's even ones that you can actually change the color of the angel eyes by simply replacing a piece inside. Sorry don't know what they're called.

Good luck and post some pics of before and after.
