| its right in the middle of the lense (and its big!)- so basically in between my eyes.. so i guess in a way its better than being totally in front of one eye but it still is vision obscuring yes - i dont mind about the asthetics side of things...... i tried ringing oakley but they said no basically (well they said yes but it will cost me)........ |

thats what I thought....
If you need to replace them look on ebay theres always fire lenses on there, or at some of the prices ive seen it may be cheaper to buy new goggles!!
Re my 'deal' Ive been trying to sort something out for a longtime for other people but I keep getting a very big no.....  |

 lets just say I've never paid more than trade for any item from oakley.... 
I know for certain they dont replace lenses for free, but frames Ive seen loads of frame replacements, even totally demolished, run over by a car replacements.....
My frames were replaced after I drove over them (dont ask how long story) but the lens came back with a huge bit of the Iridium rubbed off. However I did have a problem once where i was getting bits of teh iridium comming off like it had been sprayed with sand, they did this for free.
I do find they do more for free if you write a little interesting story to go with your specs, dont just send them eith a SAE, write how much you love them and how your life would end if you didnt have your Oakleys. |

Anyone know how to get hold of a new strap for a pair of wisdoms?
I want the camo strap that comes with the Primer coloured Wisdoms, but dont want to buy the primer goggles as they come with crap lenses! (by crap i mean a poor selection, not the ones i want) |

| does breaking a fall with your face and cracking your lense count as a manufacturing fault? |

if you can convince them that then i would be proud of you synack...........
you could try "well the goggles steamed up while i was riding, which caused me to lose visibility, catch an edge and fall head first onto my goggles and break them - if they hadnt of steamed up then i would not have fell - therefore its not my fault that they are cracked" |
