Default Clear Headlight lenses

Hi guys, just joined.
I was wondering if anyone has been able to convert 95 or older textured headlights to clear lens headlights.
It seems like the 96 has a rounder shape, with different mounting brackets, so they are not interchangeable.
I want to change them for my 95 Transport, which uses the same headlights as the Bonneville, and I would much rather have it done on clear lenses rather than flutted lenses. Has anoyne ever done this before?

Do they make aftermarket headlights (clear lensed) for the 95 Transport? Something to get rid of the fluted lensed ugliness.

Help guys! Thanks!

Aftermarket support for Bonnevilles is very thin.

You could always pick up a 96+ bonneville headlight and mess with it. and try it, Maybe getting the full setup, i wonder if anyone'* compared the light mounts...

However your up to your own for body fitment. We used to have a transport but we didn't mod it. Smellbird still has one...
