OEM lens are available but limited, AL lighting is the OEM manufacturer. I purchased from here. Shipping is slow but the pack is well protected and genuine OEM with the UV coating.

If you turn your wheels full lock and remove the front fender liners (Necessary with or without the front wheels off) you will have more than enough room to change the HID bulbs.

Thats a fact? Sounds good, been too lazy to drag the jack lift to the garage to get this done. Great if I don't have to.

Ring Xenon150. With up to 150% more light, these are by far the brightest filament bulbs that you can get right now. They are completely road legal, E marked and come with a warranty. get-vidmate.com instagram saver

Does anyone have leads on where you can still purchase OEM headlight lens by AL Automotive Lighting?
