youre better off opening your headlights and rewiring them, its really not hard at all. I bought some heatshrink and rewrapped mine in about an hour while watching a movie. super easy. also took the time to upgrade projectors, halos and black out headlights.
no point of purchasing halogen headlights.

After considering my options, I was able to find a used set in mint condition, no wiring or lens issues so I purchased them. I am curious to know what is required to open them up and perhaps re-wire them. I have been unable to find any specific information as of yet on how it is properly done.

You most likely do not need to re-wire them. You just have to cover the exposed wires.
The headlight assembly is notorious for the wire insulation becoming brittle, in turn exposing the harness wires.

yea I tried that, had to open the lights a second time until I completely stripped them (which was norhtin more than touching all the wires) and rewrapping them in heat shrink. do it right, do it once.
