Is there any way to get the orange reflector off of the cornering lights on my '04 GA? It looks pretty crappy against the black car, so I'd like to replace the orange reflector with a white one to make the headlights all clear looking. I couldn't find the topic in a search. Thanks.

as far as I know it isn't removable unless I missed an update, I'd suggest you get the headlight covers from pfyc.com

... or you can simply buy headlight vinyl from any of the vinyl companies on our site :)

I don't see why you cannot take the the headlight assembly apart and used a dremel very carefully to remove the orange and then reassemble the assembly. If I could find a headlight to try it on, i would but I don't feel like shelling out $100 just to try it.

its molded in to the plastic. it would not be easy to remove either. and you would most likely would damage the clear plastic and make it look like crap.
the vinyl is a very popular thing to do and it looks really good.

If you look close at the light, you can see cirles at various points on the orange. I am assuming that is the glue. I would still like to try it though. I might be going to the j/y tomorrow for a trim piece and if I do, I will inquire about a headlight and give it a try.

Damn. I was hoping someone might have sold clear corners for it or something. Headlight vinyl, huh? I might have to look into that, then.

The vinyl is pretty easy to put on. I did it myself and my grandma helped me out some. It makes a BIG difference.
