The Baja Designs S1 Light Pod Lens Kit in the clear Work/Scene pattern is a replacement front optic for S1 series LED light pods, so a cracked or scratched lens doesn't mean retiring the whole light. The manufacturer's S1 lens kit listing describes each kit as one lens and one O-ring, and it offers Four lens patters to choose from: Spot, Wide Cornering, Work/Scene, Trail. The S1 auxiliary light page lists the lens as Hardcoated Polycarbonate.
Compared with a generic cover or a new light, the reason to buy this is the sealing design. The manufacturer uses O-ring seals rather than silicone, which is what lets a lens be unscrewed and swapped in the field. A rock strike or pattern change can be handled with a small part while the existing housing, bracket, and wiring stay in place. Searches like S1 light pod clear lens replacement, Baja S1 Work/Scene lens O-ring, and S1 lens swap T10 Torx tend to come from owners facing exactly that situation. Fitment follows the S1 light itself rather than a specific vehicle, so confirm your light is an S1 model before ordering.
The kit is made for S1 series lights. The manufacturer's lens change sheet notes that S1 lights keep the O-ring groove in the housing rather than in the lens, so confirm your light is an S1 before ordering.
No. The manufacturer seals its lenses with an O-ring rather than silicone, and the O-ring should be pressed firmly and evenly into its groove before the lens is set.
Owners on user forums report that the lens cover can come screwed on inverted. They unscrewed it with a T10 Torx bit and reversed it so the branding sat right side up.
Per the manufacturer's uService lens change sheet, this is a light-duty job that needs one tool. Remove the front bezel screws with a T10 Torx bit, lift out the old lens, and note how the lens and O-ring sit before you remove them. Press the new O-ring firmly and evenly into the housing groove, set the lens in the same orientation, thread the screws back in, and tighten to about 5 in-lb. Owners on user forums warn that the lens may be installed inverted, so check the branding orientation before the final tightening. Keep the O-ring clean and seated, since the manufacturer's install sheets emphasize a clean O-ring for a proper seal.
