New side marker light covers reasonably prices?
Anyone make these? I'd think these days someone could just 3d print a set for a few cents. These $150-400 side marker cover prices I'm seeing are ridiculous for a hunk of rectangular plastic!
Or maybe there are other lenses that fit? Miata, etc... ?

You after the lens's or just the housings? What year? SA's only have fronts w/yellow lens's while FB have front and rears in both yellow and red. In my experience, its the housings the deteriorate with time and have been offered as 3
D printed versions. The lens's do not disintegrate and are fairly easy to find and aren't that expensive. Here is one example of the housings.(no connection)

Looking for the lens covers on an FB. My front and rear are in bad shape. Rears are cracked out.
I'm not so sure you'd need clear resins with the light behind them. Just a thinish red ASA resin of any sort would be fine, they are UV resistant. If ya had to reprint or buy another set ever 10 years it wouldn't be the end of the world either.
Mine just look horrible as is. I don't even care if they light up honestly. Just don't want the eye sore.
