Go to your local glass company & have them cut to size. They should be a clear lens anyway. In my neck of the woods about $30 for a pair.

Re: WTB headlight lenses for 1913
I'm running 12v LEDs in my '14 in lieu of the original HOT carbide flame so I just used plexiglass from Amazon. You can get two 9" round 1/8" thick acrylic disks for less than $10. You will need to grind them slightly smaller in diameter on a grinding wheel to get them to fit, but the advantage is they are cheap, lightweight, and won't break your heart if you happen to drop one of them.

You need to be more specific. What brand?
