Not to mention hard to install, will test your patience.

I would like to get the clears also, but I find it hard to spend that much money just to get rid of the little amber portion.

Welcome to the forum money99!

One way to get in there is to oven bake the headlight assembly to melt the glue. You can then remove the amber reflectors. While you're at it, you can also change the angel eye rings for a whiter light. All this is easily said then done as I heard it's very difficult to do this on the e60 headlight assembly.

Another option, with regards to the amber turn signals is, if you have a black car, just tint that piece on the outside.... =)
