Hey guys, anyone knows where or how can i get a replacement clease plastic cover for my C6 front headlights?
My headlight clear plastic cover looks dull and it got some small cracks in the center, i really don't want to buy a new headlight, i wonder if i can get the clear plastic cover only.

Thanks.

Cover is not a separate part. Unit is glued/sealed together. Only limited success has been reported in separating the pieces.

Is it that hard to open? I remember once i saw clear lens getting sold seperatly, i came acros this on ebay:

There was a thread not long ago where a member posted that he as done this a number of times, but that it is still hit or miss. This is usually done by applying heat (baking at low temp) to soften the glue, but sometimes the housing distorts before the lens can be removed. Getting it resealed can also be a problem.

Worth a try, but be prepared to buy a whole new assembly.

Try Corvette Recycling for used units cheaper than buying a new one.

theres a couple of LMB ones on ebay right now, used will save you a considerable amount over buying new ones.

Thanks everyone, i found the lens on ebay and i've placed my order, it seems that many people bought them, and i've found a paint shop who's repainting many C6 headlight, they told me they'll install them for me.
