The trouble is that the standard indicator it not 'smoked' so it doesn't match the cleared/ smoked headlight corners.
I am going to have to split the lens from the housing now and then spraypaint he insides black/ gun metal.
I have taken pics of this process and will post them when I have completed the job.
This is not a job for the fainthearted

How did you manage? Pictures?
When you sanded the amber off did you get to a clear lens under it?
