Yes, that one does have clear markers. The orange is the bulb inside. you can get the bulbs that light up amber but look blueish clear, but that is definitely a clear lens

 

 

EDIT: I just realized something, are you talking about the lower marker? if so, its just a rectangle, and you could easily make a custom one, or those might even come apart, im not sure.

Shawn cleared the ones on the back of his Cutlass, and they look like they might be the exact same reflector. Ask him!

id perfer it cleared with athe super white led i have. my signal light are super white leds...so side markers were next..so i need em cleared..and iam gettin nowhere so far

no, I thought shawn sprayed his gray, to match the GFX :thinking:

 

Yeah, I spray canned them metallic silver. The paint I used, light shines through them just fine so they look normal at night.

 

I don't think there's an amber film on your sidemarkers. All the ones I've seen are molded in color. I'm guessing the entire housing is bonded together. You could always cut clear plexi to the right size, cut the clear lens off the light bucket, and glue that to the clear plexi lens you made. Might look a little ghetto depending on your creativity level, but they don't make aftermarket clears for old Regals so not much else you can try.

yea..well thats gay cuz i got the whole l.e.d signals and brake lights and reverse.. side markers would of made it sicker..but o well ill c what i can do

Posted

thats what i was thinking but i duno id have too look around for cars with it cleared and c if it fits...so wel c

Posted

OOh those.

 

I wonder if something else would fit. I know Corsica owners use clear side markers meant for a Saturn...

 

I know the Beretta guys actually have them made for there car, or atleast I thought so(maybe they are using the Malibu ones, damnit it's been forever!).

 

At any rate, I'd hit up a JY, find what other cars match yours for size, then look online and see what they are using.
