Simple Turn Signal Lense ?

Ran through various searches, including ICE at top of page, but can't find simple answer. 1990 vert, n/a I have seen clear and orange lenses for the front turn signals. Which one is stock? Pretty sure its orange, but want correct answer.

Thanks in advance!

PEACE THE DOG

stock series five is clear. You can go to a home improvement store and buy a sheet of the clear kitchen light covers and fab your own.

Funny thing, selling lense covers, orange, and just took one of my off (clear) to check it out. The SOB is a sealed unit, orange reflector internally. Wonder how much that is to replace, knock on wood!

No, the S5 turn signal lights in the front bumper are a semi white/clear lens, an Amber bulb, and not a sealed unit.

They are also not interchangeable with a S4 amber lens or housing

All the bulbs are replaceable...

All S5's had clear outer lenses, but some markets had orange bulbs while others had orange inner lenses and clear bulbs. All S4's had orange lenses.

well actually some non US spec S4 models also had the orange inner lens, and clear bulb, in the clear lens.

Aus and euro models.

Had to go check, but yeah you're right. These are Aussie S4's.
