I am wondering if there is a source for the drl plastic lens inside the headlight. It looks like you could pry the cover off. TIA Cheers, Dave

Doubt it, but if you do replace them, be sure to switch to led turn signals lamps so the new lenses don’t burn the same way. Faster blink rate is worth it.

X2 but if you add a resistor to them or buy LEDS with the resistors built in you can avoid the hyper flash!

Might just do that and just leave the lenses out. I'll see how it looks
