Default Plastic-to-glass lenses

Does anyone know if the plastic headlight lenses can be swapped out for glass?

I'm selling my '02 and I would gladly deliver it with the plastic lenses which are on my '07. Kira

No i dont think they can.

The plastic lenses respond well to the resurrection kits if they're looking tired

My 2005 V70 has had the lens de-fogged looks like new George, you can buy kits to clean them up.

The polycarbonate lenses won't last too long once the wiper blades start to scratch the surface.
