Are there glass headlights for a 1999 5th gen (face-lifted) Camry? If not, are there any good looking after market lights? My stock plastic ones are so yellowed/mildewed they are beyond repair. If there are no good after market headlights I will just have to get some new stock ones and retro fit in the Sylvania silver-star 9005 bulb to fit.

1999 is 4th gen; 4.5 to be exact.

99 is a Gen4...or do you mean you put a Gen5 front end on your 99? but glass? one rock and it would break..you can check ebay for replacements..

or maybe i misread that all together?

face lifted?

Sorry, 4.5 gen., this should be moved to the 3-4 gen section.

a 1999 isnt a gen 4.5
its a gen 4....the facelifted gen 4.5 bowed in 2ooo and went through 2oo1. the gen 4.5 domestic models and gen 4 domestic models have plastic headlight housings, but gen 4.5s have a distinctive crystal appearence. JDM market camry gracia models came with glass headlamps, which can be found through ebay and importers....
im moving this to gen 3-4....hope this helps you!
cheers and good luck.

You could import them from Australia.
All our Camry's regardless of year or series have Glass and or Pyrex headlights (no plastic ever).
