You mean your stock headlights lens turned orange and you want a new set?

You can try to clean it with toothpaste actually. If that doesn't help, Ebay sells them for $65 each.

As I answered on another thread, Euro corners do not exist for the Gen3. That is, if you're using "Euro" correctly to mean a completely transparent lense.

There are only clear corners available for the Gen3, the kind with a frosty translucent plastic.

The correct term for the lens without the lines is called "freeform".

GreCam: Euro, freeform, whatever you want to call it, doesn't change a NO to a Yes. We can only answer the same question so many ways. :roll:

I have stock headlights - there are no aftermarket ones.

I have clear corner lenses - the type with the lines and frosted plastic, THE ONLY TYPE THEY MAKE AFTERMARKET

I have &quot;Euro&quot; or freeform bumper/signal lenses - the type with the clear transparent plastic, THE ONLY TYPE THEY MAKE AFTERMARKET

In other words, whatever you can find out there is whatever I have.
