I don't consider this a DIY, but in many ways it is. I have an extra set of one piece headlights with the driver's side being severely cracked. I decided to try and fix the broken lens. Here is what I did:
The cracked lens.

The part I used to fix it. Note I cut along the line towards the front of the lens.

Placed it over the broken lens for fitment.

Painter's tape for good measure and traced the outline.

Then, with the trusty Dremel, I went to town.

Nice fit.

Next comes epoxy and we will see how it looks.
