Bought and installed 'Chrome-Dome' lenses from http://www.autolumination.com/ . I didn't think they sold the full chrome ones anymore but apparently they do, man their web site sucks.

Overall I have mixed feelings, I saw in other threads that there where complaints that the full chrome bulbs where not bright enough to see during the day. The Chrome Dome look fine to me as far as light output but I did not have a set of full chrome bulbs to compare them to. I originally had regular orange bulbs in there and from some angles the whole lens looked orange. The chrome dome bulbs are not perfect, you still see orange behind the lens although it varies depending on the angle you are looking at them from but it never looks like the lens itself is orange. It is hard too show in pictures but I will give it a shot, top pic is plain orange bulbs (the turn signal is not on), bottom pic is 'chrome dome' bulbs.

 

ok, how many 20 something year olds when they saw the title of this thread were reminded of of "chrome dome," the villian from the ninja turtles? lol

sorry for the digression teenagers and middle-agers.. post on...

 

you should have gotten the all chrome ones.
i bought the dome ones and i could still see the orange when they werent on.
now i have the full chrome ones. light output is the same as the dome ones.

 

Now you tell me, these are not to bad and a big improvement over the plain orange but eventually I think I will get the full chrome ones. At least now anyone who does a search will know.

 

NOT BAD! It still looks pretty good, and they're like replacement for angel eyes for day time view.

 

Hey guys, looking for the clear turn signal lens for the headlights. Where can I find those? I have searched ebay, amazon etc., but I am probably using the wrong key words. Suggestions?

 

It can be made from a HD trailer light. I haven't heard of anyone selling a 5.5 Maxima-specific clear turn signal lens.

 

You can use any plastic lens that's big enough. You just use the old one to trace a circle on it and cut it out. Obviously you want to match the other lens next to it as close as you can. The ones I used where made for low voltage landscape lighting. Someone posted the exact part number on here a while ago but any plastic lense will work.

 

 

Cool, thanks guys.

 

Malibu is the maker of the lens. Amazon is your best bet, I know they sold them at Home Depot in the states, but they may have discontinued them.

I have the bag at home I'll try to remember to post the PN if no one beats me to it.

 

I have one that I didn't use. The pair are in my garage. Pay postage u can have them. Email me your address cant.get.ryte@gmail.com

 

Here is the writeup including the exact part number for a lens that works very well. But, like I said, you have to trace the orange lens onto the clear one and cut it out - so any plastic lens that looks like the one already in the headlight and is big enough should be fine.

Thanks for the help guys, I forgot to check this again for new postings. I will try out the suggestions. Hopefully replacing the lens won't be an aggravating process.
