Default How to get clear lenses without ecode swap?

Just wondering if there was any way to remove the orange reflectors without swapping the headlights. I have xenons. Any input is appreciated.

yeah its easy..i suggest using a sodlering iron to melt into the back housing instead of a drill... both work, but the soldering iron is cleaner and less dangerous to cause damage.

2nd on the iron. I did mine and they must have been too cold. When I drilled in the back the housingcracked a little. About 2 months later I got some water collection in the light...I fixed this with lots of apoxy.....better to burn in as you will eliminate the hard to get shavings as well
