Question

Does anyone know if there are clear covers / protectors for the PIAA conversion.

I have run during the summer with the white ones on, but now its getting dark would like the benefit of them but without the cost of broken lenses

Ade,

I noticed they do carbon fog covers as well (£4 cheaper). Any idea if they're the same as yours (except for the carbon).

Might give them a call tomorrow to find out.

Clear covers from PIAA should be available sometime in the New Year, they are currently being developed by a supplier.

Cheers
At below £30 they will do, how do they fit?

David have you any idea of cost, I bought them from you earlier in the year and I would rather have a cover designed for them. But as a product developer myself I know the meaning of "next year"

Jaz,
I had the same problem and have phoned PIAA a few times over recent months but keep being told the clear covers are being developed in Australia and will be available soon.
Now the dark nights have arrived i need to use the lights regularily so have bought the std. subaru fog light covers which when rotated 45 degrees fit fine, as has been documented on previous threads.

I have just had a PIAA lens broken by a stone. Does anyone know if you can buy just the lens assembly (and if so, where from) or do you have to get a complete new unit?

Jaz,
A pair of existing covers are about £18, but these clear ones will probably be slightly more.

Marin,
Replacements lens or complete units are available from us.
