Default Headlight Question

Hi I'm new here and this is my first post. We have had our Saab 9-3 2003 Linear for about 2 years, and we love it. Recently my wife hit a dog and smashed the front end up, including the headlight. We have the Xenon lights and I have been to about 30 different places looking for a headlight. The bulb itself is fine we just need the lense. We've been told different things by everyone as far as what will fit. I already know the halogen light won't work because the internal wiring is different, I guess the only question I have is will the outer lense from a halogen headlight housing fit the Xenon light housing? From the pictures I see they look similar, and I called Saab but they are no help, they would rather me spend $500 for a whole new light then $40 on Ebay. Go figure. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

well you do not want the actual lense from a non-hid headlight...it will **** off the drivers in opposing traffic....not to mention the light pattern will be completely wrong...
