Default Changing Lucas WL12 lens color

On my last junkyard run, I found a couple of Lucas WL12s. The downside was the lens color was a now non-transparent red. I picked up a piece of green 1/4" acrylic plastic rod to make a new lens. I cut a piece about 2" long and chucked it in my drill. Profiled the end, lathed it down to .15", polished it up, and then cut it to size. I know you can buy them new, but I always enjoy rehabbing an original part.
