Default ST170 Headlamps!!

Has anyone seen the black ST170 headlamps without the amber lens for the indicator. As I have seen them on Focus WRC's unless they were modified, which is something I wasn't planning on doing!!

Cheers!!

I did wonder, A mate of mine wanted to paint the inside of his body colour but ruined his lens taking it off, I think he used a soldering iron, Im assuming they're bonded together and you have to break the seal.?!

Basically obtain a pair of smoked ST170 headlights

Buy these clear units off the guy on ebay - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Ford-Focus-MK-...1%7C240%3A1318

Then follow the fitting instructions from the guys website - http://www.focusclearlens.com/

Job Done
