Just buy clear lenses fitted with H3 100W halogen bulbs. Just make sure your wiring can handle the extra wattage or fit a relay.

^^ I guess that will be the easy way to do it even though I'm not to impress by them clear plastic lens.I use Bosche Pilot on mine but at the time (8yrs) ago I didn't have any choice,the clear plastic lens shown weren't available then.The advantage of the Bosh is,that it take only a couple minutes to remove the lens if the buble burns out, also glass don't scratch as easily.Last year the fellaw who bougth the car from me though he had burnt bubles so I open them up for him & after eigth yrs the reflector look like new.It end up being the fuse was burn out ,swear to me he had change it but lol change he the wrong fuse.But like mention there is quiet a bit of work involve doing this DIY.
