Lenses are pretty scratched up and looking at replacing them. It's $100 (processing/S&H) to send it in to Maui Jim and $46 to replace myself from a third party. Which should I go with? My primary concern is lens quality. Comfortable with installing the lenses myself.

If these lenses will last longer than the above, I'd be willing to pay more. Anyone know if these lenses are worth it?

I finally got the lenses and did not realize the vendor is located in Auckland, no wonder it took so long for them to get here, did not check closely when I was ordering. The lenses arrived in good order but they were not packaged in a box, but just an envelope but the lenses were carefully wrapped. Installation was pretty easy, took 5 minutes, the screws are really small. They do not fit flush to the top of the frame, I figured this would be a problem ordering from a third party vendor, there are so many frame models, but so far it's just aesthetic. So far, happy with the purchase.

      I think you're saying it's preposterous to think that the areas on this club are anything like what's shown here: 30mm toward the toe or heel loses only 5% distance? Highly, highly doubtful. So a guy who hits the ball there and normally hits the ball about 250… will hit it instead about 238. By missing the sweet spot by about 1.2 inches? Highly, highly doubtful. Heck, the high heel barely gets into the red, and orange is only "up to" 10%! @M2R, I've never heard of "Ask Golf Nut" but I'm dubious of his claims in the video and really, really dubious of what's on his site: "Why AskGolfNut Is the Most Trusted Data-Driven Golf Resource". Hmmmmmm.

      So the question was posed today by some of my friends.  Is a pitch mark the same as a divot?  I thought NO, but they argued if your ball lands in another player's divot (made by club during a swing) this was the same as a pitch mark, i.e. the ball mark made when the ball lands

      Original definition use to or still is how far offline you hit it. It might be better to think of it as consistency in retaining favorable launch conditions to optimize distance.   That heat map showed a gigantic 0-3% loss in ball speed. That is absurd. The true 100% sweet spot is tiny for all clubs. Good luck telling the difference if the sweet spot is under 3% in a sizable area. Especially considering variation in launch angle, spin, and outdoor weather.
