Dont think you can buy just the lens mate..i may be wrong though...although you can get a replacemewnt head...but if you are gunna go down that road then it,d be just as cheap to buy the full lamp...atb stabba Quote Link to post

bleachtastesnice 4 Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 Just a thought, on a new lamp do you think it would be a good idea to fablon (its the thin, clear stickie back plastic you use for water proofing maps) the lens? Dont think it would effect the beam, but its layer of protection that can be removed if it gets marked up. Quote Link to post
