    Default getting replacement lens for a 2008 GS SE5 fender lite w/o buying the whole assembly

    The little tabs on the lens are not the strongest. Busted the holding pin off one some years ago, had to buy the WHOLE lens-bulb holder and wiring kit ($26)to replace just the friggin' lens. Fast forward to today, another one fell apart. This time $41. The dealer said it's no longer in the CanAm warehouse and would have to order from Vintage Parts.com.
    Anyone know of a Junk yard with busted up CanAm's? Perhaps I could get the part cheaper? Thanks

    Still got the busted lens? Maybe mount some other (redneck)way not duct tape or bailing wire necessarily. Sorry not knowing size or shape of said parts, just guess work. DIY upgrades New style fenders with LED lights & no lens to fool with believe the new style made to fit larger diameter tires being the major difference so it might even just fit over the old fender alternative spot lighting mounted to fender sidewall. Unknown legal requirements. Hopefully someone has a part for you
