If the housings are deeply scratched, they are garbage. You can only resurface them so far, before they go beyond their limit.

If it is possible to use the housings from my old car where would be the best place to get it resurfaced?

The wear marks on the housing faces are normal and ok, as long as there are no scratches or gouges. If you run your hand over them they should feel smooth.
