Ah right, I understand now why you want the red lights off.
Even if you chose the one with the invisible IR (invisible to the naked eye), the CCTV camera would still pick it up and you'd still have the same problem with it being reflected back off the glass.
The only thing I can think off is to place tape around the edges, covering all the IR pieces, as the camera lens is in the centre - so basically leave a hole in the centre exposing the lens.
The only problem with this is you'll have very poor (if any) night vision, but you'd have that problem anyway if you turned the IR pieces off.
