Count me in to buy a pair of clear diffusers if they were made. Completely clear looks OK with the lights off, but is not as effective when the lights or blinkers come on. Most likely, clear corners with no diffusers are probably not DOT legal, not that they would enforce that kind of safety standard. And, $1000 for a new set of headlamps isn't worth it to me. I think clear diffusers are definitely the way to go to get the non-US look.

i thought the biggest obstacle for most people is how to remove the headlamps. if i recall, 1RandyC removed his, but it took him a long time using a heat gun and other tools to pry it open and get that piece out...if you know of an easier way to remove that orange piece, by all means, please let us know.

I'm also not understanding what a diffuser is? Would
you have to take off the headlamps, disassemble and
reassemble with 4igs2000's solution? Please explain...

I did this on my civic and it was a pain in the arse,
I do not want to do it again (i got impatient melting
the headlamp seal with the blow drier so I just pried
the sucker open with a long screw driver. Real messy!)

So if this solution is simple plug and play, then I'd
definitely be interested.

Hey guys i would love to sell it to you for $25 bucks a pair,I just got off the phone with taiwan and they request 500 sets purchased each year. I am not even sure if $25 is even a rough price. The toolings in Taiwan run about $2000-$5000 bucks. Such as the Altezza tailights for hondas and stuff, each mold is about $5000.00

I am however working on the OEM Koito ones. Hopefully get them under $800.00

let me know!
