Where can I buy a new headlight lens 98 Camaro
Hey guys in the middle of doing the Whistler mod on my 98 Camaro and my lenses are completely shot I was wondering if anyone knew where to buy just the replacement lens

Although the parts manual shows a call-out for the lens, the listing shows it as N.S. (not serviceable) and only available as part of the entire headlight assembly. So GM is out of the question as far as a source. I've seen a bunch of aftermarket headlights (both OEM style replacements and modified with projectors) but I haven't seen just the lenses there either. A junk yard may be your best option.

No where... Years ago when I was in the same situation I went ahead and bought the cheapest set of headlights I could find, which at the time was like a $90 set of halos.. Pulled them apart when I got them and installed those lenses on my freshly painted whistler'd lights.. That was before you could buy them already whistler modded.. Now that you can buy them and they are so cheap you might as well just get some. Should be like $100 for the set.

Unless their cracked or burned, a restoration can work wonders on the lenses. I would suggest against clear coating them though, makes it a major PITA to restore them next time. I've always just finished restos by applying a coat of wax onto the lens.
Just my experience, best of luck.

lol too late on the clear coat advice.. I would have rather tried wax first... I have cleared it an sanded it back off two or three times until I was finally happy with the way it looked .. I will keep wax in mind for the future
