I have one complete bucket with a pretty nice lens for the passenger side. It's got the tiniest start of a burn mark that is only perceptible from certain angles. This picture is probably the worst, I could take a picture from a different angle and you wouldn't see any burn at all. I don't know how to remove the lens from the bucket and don't want to try and possibly break it. A USPS Medium size Priority Mail box would fit and cost $16.10 to ship. If you want to pay for shipping via PayPal or Zelle and you could have it. Send me a PM. Honestly though, if you're going to the trouble of opening up the headlghts, why don't you convert them over to bi-xenon projectors with a quality set, like the Morimotos. Here is a picture of the lens-

I looked into the RetorfitLab.com projector upgrade, but I don't like the "black hole" that exists because the main reflector was removed. I prefer a more factory look with the silver reflector bowl in place. Is there another option that enables this?



If there's not a more factory-looking upgrade, I think my only options are to replace the burnt lens or switch to factory Litronics. I'm not too excited about either due to cost and complexity.
