Hi Guys

I have just noticed that one of my len's is cracked, there's no sign off impact or anything it just appears to have a crack.

Can this len's be replaced?? its the high beam len's in question

Any idea's on cost or how to change it out??

Thanks
Neil

why do you care if its E stamped? its only a high beam lens, so you're not gonna be driving with the high beam facing anyone are you?
