Headlight clear side marker lense
I am fitting projectors in my headlights and the small orange side lenses have twisted so I want to change the to clear to meet the UK regs.
Where can I get them from?

I have seen aftermarket lights with clear lens but, like stated above.. never seen sold separate.

The other option is to take the headlights apart, remove the factory amber lenses and paint the back with black paint. Painting the non visible side keeps them looking really shiny/ smooth as well as then they looked smoked. all depends on the look you are trying to go for. That is what I did on my WRX headlights.
Before with a chrome ring around the projector and amber reflector.
After with painted chrome and painted back side of the amber reflector with the same black paint.
After 2 years it is still holding up great and there is no sign of paint problems. This was also after I replaced the ugly orange turn signal bulbs for some very nice projector style led turn signal bulbs so there would be no orange inside the headlight.

From what I gather UK requires a side turn signal as UK Jeep XJ Cherokee's are fitted with an amber turn signal on the front wing [fender], where it isn’t here in the US.
