Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

For the ones that have the orange turn signals (like mine) is there any way to go clear, besides changing the whole headlight housing?

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

9 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have an 01, I thought that all I needed to do to change out the small orange in the headlights was to change out the bulb.....I waited a week to finally get the chrome bulbs....was all set and happy to get rid of the orange...then BAM!!...the bulbs not even orange, there is an orange plastic piece in there.....I searched and searched but could not find anything....is there some sort of mod to take out the orange pieces??

POST 2Original post

yes, I saw it and I forget where. You are lucky to have the plastic. Some are molded yellow. So I have part of yoru answer: Yes it can be done Sorry I do not remember where I saw it. Start a www search. I think thats how I found it. It is worth the time and effort for the $$ saved in buying even used clear ones... about 3-400 A SIDE

No kidding... to be more accurate, the SECOND headlamp was fun... the first headlamp was a little nerve-wracking (I'm supposed to take a hot soldering iron to what???) If you're in WA state, I'd send it to Ed for him to have more fun... Rudy
