GO to the lighting section of H. Depot. Look for the clear lens material used for flourescent light fixtures; comes in like 24" X 48" sheets (or something like that). It's about $2.39 here. Then get a tube of clear silicone $2-3.

To make a long story short, use a heat gun to pop off the old orange lens, and use it to make a template on the clear sheet. Then cut out; and re-install clear lens using silicone. Trim as needed, and you are good to go.
