When I got mine - there were no options that I was aware of.
Mine are clear, with about 5 horizontal lines, and that looks like the "grid" option.
My thinking:
I want those white running lights to be seen. Period.
I want the amber turn signals to be seen. Period.
No smoke, thank you.
The smooth lenses are a different company's part, but I'm sure they will work fine if SoCal is offering them, however they probably provide a different throw pattern. I cannot say if it is any "better" than the grid. With the grid, I know there is some diffusion - you cannot see very clearly inside the housing, and I think I like that.
My $0.02. Cheers.

What color bike do you have, and what "look" are you going for?
I went with the clear w/grids, mostly because I think clear matches the white bike better. I chose the grids because it's what was on the OEM lenses, and wasn't sure how the fully clear lens would look.
Thanks for the advice, ive got the 2016 deluxe in a matt silver. Anybody running the clear lens with no grids?Originally Posted by pilotguy299
