Default Reflectors in headlights question

Hey guys, I want to open up the headlights and replace the amber reflectors with either clear ones or something else. Does anyone know how the dealer will treat this if I decide to return the lease? I know some of the 3IS's from other counties come without the amber reflectors and I realy like how they look. Any feedback will help. Thanks guys.

To be perfectly honest I don't think the dealer would notice unless you pointed it out. Mainly check exterior, tire tread, scratches etc. Most can miss even a faulty navigation system if they don't bother to check the features

I wanna do the same one day as well.

but i read it is a really hard lense to separate from housing though.
There's a thread on here somewhere of a guy that did housings professionally and complained how much of a rear end it was and his bloody hands.
