Default Tinted Bi-xenons revisited

Well, my Euro Xenon Plus lamps arrived today. I took them to my shop and pulled them apart, which only takes about 5 minutes for the pair. I had admired mkoneman's lights from the moment I found this site so I decided to go that route.



Our paint guy also does window tint so we used some scraps he had around the shop and did mine. We used 20% tint.




I have to polish the lenses on my lamps, but here's an idea what it'll look like (but clearer)

Interesting. Are the lenses glued in place, or are they simply secured with the clips?

The set I have only had the clips and then a gasket around the inside, no adhesive though.

Was a good mod, one I always wanted doing.
