    need headlight lenses

    i am looking for replacement headlight lenses for my H-4 conv. headlights (the ones that replace the sealed beams and are a replacemnt bulb).

    i searched and only found the guy who sells the plastic lenses. i want glass ones.

    Have you got any shots of what you want? I've got a few sealed beam, ellipsoid, and smoked ellipsoid lenses sitting around. Let me know.

      they are the Hella 5 3/4" headlights, hi beam technically, the ones you use if you are replacing your sealed beams with "e-codes"

      do you have a matched pair?

        These guys sell them:

        Although I'm not quite sure that's what you're looking for.

          that is exactly what i have! i bought the crosshairs from the group buy to go in them so i could smoke them. put them in the oven, TWICE! with no luck. so i took them to work and used my heat gun on them and the lenses cracked. so i needed new lenses only. i have also come to find out that the depth of the "e codes" or possably the curvature is different than the regular high beams found in elipsoids, smileys, ETC.
          so.....i am now going to have to trim them to fit also. yea for forging new ground.....

            You gotta buy them used if you want glass only.

              You can just buy them with bulbs and then you have a spare set of bulbs and it probably isn't that much more expensive that and the don't come up used too often.

                that is prob what i am going to have to do. i am just worried that the same thing is going to happen again when i try to remove the lenses.
                and extra bulbs wont do me any good since i am going to instal Bi-Xenon hid's in them

                  You can send them to me? Or probably give Will a call or email at rallylights.com they should be able to work something out, pretty helpful people.

                    Eh, I don't think I do actually. Flat-faced or convex?

                        Nein herr. I haven't got any flat-faced, non-smoked headlamps.
