I replaced my 2001 headlights with amber corners with completeley new headlights with clear corners. This is how BMW sells the package.
This is a pretty expensive job and I was wondering whether you can take the headlights apart (remove the glass) and only replace the two amber indicator glasses with clear ones. Has anyone ever investigated this or done this before?
I am asking because I have a friend who wants to buy my old amber headlights because they have angel eyes and Xenon but he wants clear corners as well!

Before I changed my headlights to the new clear angle lights I also had the amber ones(2001). Talked to my local BMW mech. at the time and what he told me was that itīs possible to change the outer glass (almost as expensive as buying new ones!!!) but not the amber glass for the indicators.
He might be wrong, but thatīs what he told me.
Hope this helps a little bit.
What about adding some pics to our gallery?
Best regards,
