Three comments:

1. Great work Rick, you never cease to impress me!

2. Isn't there a way to get the clear lenses from Honda Japan since I believe the lens is assembled with the headlights via the factory or some vendor? Might be more hassle but it would be a perfect match since these clear lenses are already manufactured for the JDM and Euro versions of the S2K.

3. If this works out I want to encourage members to get together and combine their skills to do group conversions. I bet there are lots of people in Southern California (for instance) who would like to make this mod but need some help. If we can get a San Diego group together I would be happy to offer my garage, tools, oven, etc. in exchange for help/support.

Rick,

Will you be making a set of instructions with pictures for this mod? I hope so since your other items include such good instructions. I would hate to make a mistake on these expensive headlights.

I'm in too. Can't wait till they are ready. Not to be pushy, but how long till you think they will be ready? If you don't know, don't worry I'll wait

I just don't know about the side reflectors at this stage. If they are made with a special manufacturing process, we obviously won't capture it. But I feel lucky that we've gotten this far.

As for production time, we won't know until we get the amber lenses to the manufacturer.
