Headlight options?

Hi, I've been reading this forum for a year now, and finally just joined. This is my first post, so please bear with me. I have a 99 C2, but I hate my orange headlights and taillights. What are my options? It seems new or used headlights will be about a $1000, while tail lights will be anther $500. Unfortunately they orange all the way through, so burning them out are out of the question. Any ideas please let me know. Thanks, Jeff

Welcome to 6speed!

Best bet is to keep an eye out on ebay for the lights. You are still looking to spend around $500-700 on the clear headlights and a few hundred more for litronics.

Also, I have the clear tail lights and sidemarkers for sale if you are interested.

After spending time reading up on the different options I have to agree that looking for used clear headlights is the way to go. I have been going back and forth for year debating whether or not to pull the string and in all that time there always seems to a pair of clear headlights out there to purchase. In fact I'm in the process of buying a pair right now. I did the tail lights when I first got the car and now it's time to clean up the front.
