best shot at seeing it is at www.clearcorners.com

he has done it, and will do it for a price. its a slick conversion, top notch quality from the looks of it. but its no secret it comes at a steep cost. from what he's told others he only does the conversion in the entirerty, so he wont just paint it for less money.

you can always take a shot at boiling or baking the housing to attempt and open it.

yeah the oven thing scared me too. seems dangerous. but someone mentioned boiling, which seemed pretty cool. nice even heat, and right at the proper temp.

but still I wont do it to my headlight, and I wont pay 2-300$ for a new one from the dealer either. soooo, I learn to like my silver headlight just fine.
