How easy is it to remove the original lens? I have a small leak that allows some moisture under my lenses. Will I be able to fix this with the installation of the new lenses?

^ More then likely. Detailed instructions will be provided, but to summarize: After you take out the headlight you heat up the sides with a heatgun or blow dryer. Then gently pull the lens off. A taped flathead screw driver works great if you go SLOWLY and CAREFULLY. When you replace the lens you let everything dry on the inside of the headlight (which is causing the moisture) and reseal with silicon.

Im down for that if it 120 for the lenses. I've contact the dealer and they said that you could only buy the complete assy. I sure need to replace mine too cuz it has some minor scratched in them. Where can we get some?
