I think E Codes are explicitly legal in some states. 

I got mine from Master Craft. Have no idea who their supplier was.

One of my lenses is chipped, and I put painter tape on to keep water out. That's actually for years. But I do need a replacement glass.

And my SAE hi beams need replacing. They're sand pitted and originals.
