Sup guys, when i had my S4 i made my own lights.
I got some back up lights from a early 90's mirage and all you need to do is to shape them a little and they fit right. see the pic

You can use standard clear overhead light diffuser panel.... the kind that covers flourecent lights.
Just cut them to shape. They aren't absolutely perfect, since they don't have a molded edge at the perimeter,. but the new clean, clear plastic is a hundred times better than the old yellowing crap.

If the appearance is important to you, don't do the fluorescent light material. They look like crap.

You actually purchased a set from Clearcorners to conclude they look like ****?

So have I. But to say the least, I don't think they look like the ceiling light fixtures. Let me post a pic.

FWIW, I have made an attempt to purchase a set but they are not selling any FC products right now. Why, you ask? Cause they are redigning the whole FC Line. What ever that means.
