I've been noticing lately that on older models of the 9-3ss (well, '03-'05 I'm guessing) -- that some of them have very cloudy light housings. I don't know if the plastic is scratched or deteriorated over time from sun, heat or otherwise (is it because the headlights are always on?). You see this more and more on older cars that have the clear plastic coverings where the lighting is significantly compromised by the poor condition of the entire unit. Seems like a safety issue ultimately. I've been in front of such a 9-3ss and the headlights seem very blurry.
My '06 Sportcombi xenons light nicely.
My two cents...
