I've had a look in the faq re this but no joy:

Have been thinking about a future mini mod despite me always liking the OE look on cars.

I have a prefacelift 4.4is with the OE headlamps which due to me having the sport pack have the so called clear front indicator lenses, however, I have noticed that the rearmost sections of the indicator housing end of the units incorporate amber reflectors.

I have the xenon option so more than happy with the efficency of the headlamps and not wanting to go for an angel eye conversion.

Despite this I cant help wondering if the car would look better with the amber reflectors removed and or possibly the indicators replaced with clear bulbs that still emit amber light.

Is there a diy mod to remove these amber reflectors from within the housing
(baking ?).

Can something else be put in their place in the form of a translucent clear reflective panel so as to allow amber light to emit from clear indicator bulbs whilst still allowing indicators to emit amber yet removing the amber look when lights not flashing and without replacing the whole unit ?

I must stress that i do not have the 100 % amber lenses as in the SE models mrely the small amber reflectors as incorportated in the housings on my prefacelift 2002 car.

Thoughts/ suggestions/ parts etc etc ???

Thanks
