the lens has clips and is glued to the housing. i personally have replaced the lenses on my 2001 a6 (same as yours). i used my regular lenses to put on a pair of xenons a customer had replaced for your issue. the thing is the lenses are not available seperately. there are companies that sell waxes and even gel coating kits to fix dull lenses but if you want the best result, buy a set of xenon headlights (complete) and install them. no wiring needed, plug and play. try 1800vwparts they may have some.
