Has anyone removed the orange reflector in the headlight? I want to do this but just want to gauge the difficulty..

yes multiple users have done this, but to your own risk because in most states it is illegal. you must have a reflector in both headlights and tail lights. but if you want to proceed you have to bake your headlights in the oven and then once inside you can remove the reflector then you have to reseal them with either the existing silicone or with some new stuff. but if ya want a diy, just search the forum cuz there are plenty of pictures of people doing just that. good luck

the reflectors don't need to be INSIDE the head and tail lights.

you could stick a stripe of reflective material (amber/red) on the sides of the car, and you are still legal. At least, in Canada/Quebec.... but that would defeat the purpose of removing it from the headlights.. lol
