Anyone know where i can get clear headlights for a 06 legacy (not blubs)?

What country do you live in? It depends on the laws of that country. In Canada they come with clear lenses. You should be able to order these from a dealer since it is an ';06, I doubt if they are available after market.Anyone know where i can get clear headlights for a 06 legacy (not blubs)?
I assume you want to take out all the amber plastic lenses right?





Going for the clean look?





OK, you will want to open up your current headlight assemblies and take them out. It sounds daunting but is actually really easy.





It involves baking your assemblies in a 150 degree F oven for a few minutes to melt the sealant they use between the clear plastic lens and the black plastic housing.





Next you'll have to take off any screws and then pry them apart...CAREFULLY. Use the metal paint scrapers you can find at Home Depot, Sears, etc. for this. Most important thing is to be firm but take your time. You'll want to use one scraper in each hand and work your way all the way around it.





Once you get the lens off...you should be able to pluck each of the amber lenses off...some may have screws but most should just come off.





Once completed you can also paint the non-reflector portions of the housings if you're into that kind of thing.





To seal it back up use the black silicone sealant they have at your local auto parts store...make sure to use enough to keep it airtight and secure.Anyone know where i can get clear headlights for a 06 legacy (not blubs)?
ummm, headlights are already clear. if they weren't clear...you'd never see the road at night.
