Clear Corner Mod
Someone over on the Fourtitude forum pulled off the clear corner mod. His post was lacking in details, but here is the photo. It looks great!

If he did it the way I think he did, I would rather buy eurocodes.
I saw a video on YouTube where they baked the light housings. This softened the glue and allowed them to separate the clear lens from the rest of the housing. Popping the orange lens out was pretty easy after that.
I would probably turn my housings into blackened useless lumps if I tried to do that. The number of brownies I have forgotten to check on over the years is horrifying.

I wonder if it could be done like the B6/B5 mod....
drill the amber piece into little pieces and then shake them out of the housing. The only issue is will the much larger amber piece break in a way that this would work?

I'm looking to see how easy it is to remove the projector...
and then popping the cap off and pulling it out through the hole. I don't think the shape and size of the cap lends itself well to the older body style mod process.

It's ALMOST enough to make me want ny old B6 S4 back ...
... first thing I did on both my B6 S4's was to change the stupid orange bulbs for Philips Silver Vision ones that look silver but when lit show orange. Did that to both front and rear.
I just hate the "fried egg" look of orange lenses.
I saw somewhere that from a certain build date clear indicators are available, maybe even standard. I feel a retrofit coming on ...

Too many nooks and crannies for little orange bits to get trapped in methinks.
That orange cap just pops forward too. If you pop it instead of breaking it on the first try, that orange lens is going to be bouncing around in that housing until you can find a way to grab hold of it and break it.
