Hey I was curious how to get rid of the orange that wraps around the side of the headlamps. Mine has an orange L like shape around the side of the headlamp over the vision bulb, but I could not see how to get this orange off easily. Is there an easy way to do this or do you have to take your headlamp completely apart?

Orange Wrap??...I guess thats a US-Market only thing??

I think he means this strange headlight design they have in the USA , make you glad to be British (thanks to colorado for use of pic)

aww thats gay that us models only have this. the orange is really ugly. Im trying to black everything out and this orange is not helping. Guess Ill have to live with it then.

is it a reflector? and there due to some sort of USA law?

You'd probably want European i.e. LH drive versions, rather than UK versions in case the lens has any changes to it for deflecting the light.

My LR2 has no nasty orange bits

As a short-term solution, I'll allow them to print out pictures of my headlights to stick-on their motors...  '57 FL2 GS
