when clearing headlights???

what did you guys do-did u just take out the orange reflector or did u replace it with the clear one?? which do you feel looks better and really gives out the best light? i am helping my friend do it 2m and i am wondering what we should do-please let me know what you all have done with yours and if you have pictures of it that would really help me make the choice easier. thanks

well when i had mine cleared out, i didnt really put a lens back on, but now, my beam from the turn signal is dam bright, you can see the beam reflect off the road and travel forward as if it was a headlight beam.
and no its not a blue light, its a polarg hyperwhite bulb.

i like the malibu lense.. it matches the parking light perfectly...

if you dont have the lense on there, when people look at it, it seems like your missing something (when in reality, you are lol)
