A clear lens will not be any good without a projector.

This sounds pretty cool. But actually what is a retro fit? The blue one on the picture is ugly in my opinion. What year is that car? The 98' light housing looks weird. Well the whole car does.. Sorry..

But the two others looks nice.

I would like some clear headlights and install HID also, so a projector would be perfect. And yeah the current corner lamps in the clear headlights set on ebay is damn ugly.

Just so i get this right. Do you want to make a DIY or do have contact to some production firms? Sorry my english is not that good so my reply might be a stupid question ;-)

IIRC that was the Jetta headlights modded to fit the 1LS area...

a retrofit can mean alot of things but in this case, it means swapping in a projector into a halogen headlight housing. the lenses are in process and i will update this as time goes on.
