I think this is a case of whatever you have, you want the other one. I swapped mine to the amber turns soon after getting my Carrera. Ted, who has a European car, switched to the red turn lenses. In the American V twin motorsickle world, the hot mod is to replace the amber turns HD churns out with red LEDs.

Not sure what's the fastest combination.

Mike, how much for the used right lense?
I think the picture explains why the bulb was added when they federalized my car.

Bill, I was actually planning on keeping the lens' JIC I want/need to switch back and to keep the origional cosmetic pieces. I know that's sort of crazy, but with my own cars I am one of those purists . Sorry.

Bumpity for the questions:

Am I missing any suppliers? Can anyone clear up where to get the OEM parts? Lucky, yours look right and very good, where did you get them?
