Broken turn signal lens needs replacement

    I ruined a big fat ducks day when it flew right in front of me and I
    nailed it with my right turn signal. He got revenge before he died by
    smashing the lens. I've seen a few places on the web that sell replacements.
    Question: is there anything I should know about these lens's? Are some of these
    less expensive after market lens's inferior? The only thing that was broken was
    the lens, is it better to buy the whole assembly or just get the lens...

    Any help or experience would help and be appreciated.

    Thanks

    Oh, and I did feel terrible about the duck.

    I probably should have mentioned I drive a 1995 940 (no fog ligths).

    The turn signal and front sidelight should be an integral unit that unclips from
    the side of the headlamp (clips undo from inside the bonnet [hood]). Check with
    Haynes or Chilton for method of removal/replacement.

    Did the duck taste good?

    Cheers, Peter.

    Duck was a bit "stringy" with a vague tinge
    of plastic flavor...

    Thanks Peter and Richard
