y not just buy new lense? n next time just put a tear off over the front that way ne scratches will only scratch the tear off which costs like 3 dollars

Cool chrome reflective lenses are around $25. Not sure what plain clear ones are, but if nice ones are $25, ya'd have to assume stocko replacement ones are cheaper. How'd ya manage to get a scratch on the inside of ya lense anyways?

yeah for around 15-20 dollars u can get a replacement lens and 25 will get u some really good ones that will probly last longer than the goggles themselves (my scott goggles fell apart but the lens is still good!)

to tell you the truth, i have nooooooo idea. i layed them on the grass with the lense down, picked em up n there was this big scratch goin across the inside of the right eye. . . probably some other downhiller wanting to sabotage my ride....they know how good i am. . .

Or maybe, just maybe, ya sat em on a stick or something and when ya picked em up it scratched across the lense.....just a theory I'm throwin out there.... but yeah, replacement lenses arn't dear at all. I've always bought a spare lense when i get a set of goggles, just for convenience sake.

I bought my light enhancing lense for my Okley googles for 15 bucks. Im not sure why, but I've always used light enhancing lenses. They are great summer though cus you can ride for a lot longer a night.
