Series 200 to Series 100 Headlamp conversion

[Brett Dikeman]

If you're in the UK, that means you have euro-spec headlights.

Remove both(I don't think you can remove the lens without pulling the
whole thing), pop the grey metal clamps around the front.  Bingo,
your sand-blasted lens just popped off.

Here in the US, each lens is about $60 or so.  I think lens
replacement would probably be the best way to go unless the
reflectors are shot too.
