I remember a couple months ago, there was some talk about someone discussing this matter with a gentleman at bekkers.com...About being able to remove and replace the amber piece of our turn signal to clear them like the Euro Style.
Did this ever happen? Was the gentleman ever able to take apart the light assmebly and see if it was possible? I would hope we will be able to swap those amber pieces. Anyone have any ideas who originally made the post?

Im showing the part number of 63 21 0 301 815 for the retrofit kit that changes them to white.
Is that for the bulb or the actual reflector inside the headlight cover?

[/quote]That is the part number to clear out the rear lights. Are you guys talking about the small yellow section up in the corners on the headlights? The headlights arent showing to come apart enough to get to the reflectors. The euro headlights are a different part number. All depends on if the car has Bi-xenon and adaptive.

LOMAG and DAS you should get a Group buy together for this in the Classifieds. We need to negotiate a purchase price and agreement for the pair of clear reflectors. I think we will have a large number of interested buyers.
People should start posting if they are Intrested...
