I wonder if you could strip the dye off the OEM ones..maybe by putting em in acetone or something..haha..highly doubtful since it's prob all the way through but hey, you never know. We need a chemist to chime in on how to do this

Good luck on that one


OP, rick's use to make those clear diffusers. They stopped selling them 3~4 years ago, you can get in touch with them to see if they have a left over pair sitting somewhere.

I'm in the process of getting some molds & lenses together to see if I could make a few sets. I'll probably have some more news end of Dec early Jan. I have to finish getting materials.

I've seen people make the clear diffuser from the light fixture reflector from like Home Depot. Good luck.
