Default Headlight blinker change

I'm wondering about the yellow blinkers in the headlights. Since this is an HID headlight, are the gases inside the casing or is it in the projector bulb? I wanted to change the yellow parts of the blinkers in the headlights to white to create a sleaker look, but what are the dangers of opening the case?

If all this is possible, would anyone know where they sell clear blinkers?

The turn signal and parking light bulbs are completely seperate from the actual headlight. They use traditional wedge bulbs which are found in 95% of cars.

The amber lens in the turn signal as well as parking lights can be replaced with a clear lens. Do a search for "cleared headlights", and you will find all you need to know.

Check out Rick's website--he offers the clear lenses. There's nothing inside the headlight bucket itself that you're not breathing now.

ricks site if for the ap1 clear diffusers. I think the OP has an ap2.

Like geoff2005 said, i believe custom work needs to be done to clear the ap2 headlights
