I am sure he is talking about the clear front blinker light covers on FBs. Do a search. This has been brought up before, but I don't remember if they found a good source.

I think I have read somewhere that you can take the yellow lense out of the front, but I dont know about the back lenses.

JoseReyes used to sell them, but has been unable to contact his manufacturer in some time.
He's the only one I've ever heard of in my 10 or so years of RXing

I can get them made, but the inital tooling costs will be a fair bit.

Soooooo.... there'll have to be a group buy of some sort, to get things going...


But first, I've got a plexiglass sunroof kit and a sleepy eye kit to get through before I get to the clear markers...

IIRC IoTus made his own. I'm sure if you search it up under his username you'll find his sig to his cardomain site where he outlines the process.

I think you're thinking of his clear tailights Jon. The side markers are one piece jobies - no coloured layer to remove...

Thanks Jose!

I've e-mailed Dan.

This is MUCH easier then having to get them made

Look closely at the car. Notice something missing, or rather relocated?
