Default Safari 5000 lens replacement

I broke open my Safari light as the screws were so rusted I could not get them out using left hand drill bits. The H3 bulb was out, but the lenses are so bad with rock chips I’d like to replace the 7 inch flat front glass lamps..any suggestions?
thanks

I've modified several sets over the years with IPF 7inch lens & Hella 7inch lens. IPF were a perfect fit, and the Hella's were darn close. Just had to secure the lens into the housing & wire em up.

This is helpful..thanks! I may have been too destructive getting the case open as the screws were so badly rusted. Spraying with carb cleaner to clear the hole seams to have reacted with the black plastic casing.
