clear headlights for S15 Jimmy?

Does anyone know of anyone that sales the clear headlights? Only ones i could find so far have the amber on em. Or does anyone know how to get the pitted marks out of the lens?

Re: clear headlights for S15 Jimmy?

You have to do them yourself. its called the oven trick.

here ya go:

Heat your oven to 350 degrees.

Remove chrome trim ring from around light.
Remove metal retainer clips from around assembly
Put headlamp in oven for 5 minutes (no more!)

Using oven mits, seperate the housing and then pull the orange reflector

Put both halves of headlight back in oven for 4 minutes...

Pull out and press together and let cool.

Reseal with clear silicone

Reattach metal clips and trim ring

Reinstall in car.
