The xl lens has 7mm's of more space between the nose bridge and the top of the frame.

7mm is a big difference; I'm not surprised Oakley emphasizes that these are specialized glasses. Check Zappos for some pics:

In fact the Radar and the Radar XL are two different glasses,
so the XL-Lens will not fit into an normal Radar frame...

You may be able to swap out the nose piece of the XL frame to move it to your non-XL frame, but its not confirmed yet.
I'd say for now, make sure you really like the color combo of the frame and lens you select.

I have the Radar XL straight blades and the lens is huge but I find it functional. The lens selection is less so right now.

Is the Unobtainium portion of the nose piece any bigger/wider on the radar XL. If so, would that be interchangeable with the smaller sized Radars? Thanks in advance.

I want to say the unobtanium is not only longer its softer but its been two years since I purchased a pair of Radars.

Changing the nosepiece between the normal and the XL Radar is possible, just tried it out...
