When I bought my car, the headlights were burned too. I was told it was from the previous owner installing blue xenon knock-off bulbs (probably ebay) which run much hotter than stock ones. Unfortunately, changing the bulbs will not help you. The inner housing is encased within the outer and can't be changed to my knowledge.

I ended up buying a new set of headlights (not litronic), but they are clear, I wanted to get rid of the amber anyway. I then installed an HID kit, pure white...none of that rice-rocket blue crap. That made an enormous difference in the look of the car at night. Look around on the internet, I don't remember where I got them but I paid about $900 for the pair of headlights and the HID kit was about $100.

If you're not planning on "de-ambering" the set for sale below is a steal, I'd snatch those up while you can! Good luck!
