TBH I'd just sling a new set in... Perhaps upgrade to projectors :-? :-?

I'm sure you could get a pair from someone on here without breaking the bank :y :y :y

If its just the outside lens gone milky looking then you just need to t cut it...elbow grease and jobs a goodun!

I dont suppose the silver is flaking off the inside unless you have had them open before...if it is then you take the unit apart and swap the reflector part over for a replacement but doubt that will be unnecessary, just misunderstood the original problem  :y

Silvering looks fine so dont touch that.

The lenses need a good rub down with fine wet and dry followed by T-cut or G3
