Re: Headlight lens
I agree on that, don't like them on a car. Guess I'm old fashioned that way. Still hope I can locate at least 2 of them.

Re: Headlight lens
Hopefully if they are that ugly I could buy them cheap. I really just need the small lens for a project I'm working on. Guess you could say I'm an innovator.

Re: Headlight lens
That's the problem, I can't find anyone or a supplier that sells them. Do you know of some place that does have them.
