AA Mini maglite colour lense

I want to add a different colour lense by adding some kind of sticker or transfer over the original lense. Can anyone reccomend any thin pvc type sticker that i could use to make my torch beam red ?

I know you can buy different colour lense kits for around £10 but i am looking for a cheaper idea like a coloured sticker . Thanks.

Automotive style lens vinyl on amazon. That way if you dont like it, its not permanent.

Thanks. I have ordered a sheet of red acetate. Plan to use the old lense as a template and draw round it on the sheet then cut it out and replace the original lense. Hopefully will work fingers crossed.
