rear clear side markers

[T-Punk]

ok, i have found the clears for the fronts all over the place but where can i find some for the rear side markers for my 2001 firebird. i just cant find them.

[Predator Bird]

they use to sell them on ebay a long time ago, but i can't find them either now. i know one guy on here made them out of the stock red markers. here is the post. http://www.camarov6.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=5;t=004778

I got my clear front and sides for 60$ shipped, including all 4 bulbs from ebay. But mines a Camaro, would it be the same stuff?

hmm, i think i will try to make my own first and then buy them if i cant get it right. i think i have a few different thicknesses of lexan to try in my garage, cracking wont be a problem with that stuff, it rules. thanks guys.

If you do not want to see a red bulb then using a red LED bulb will eliminate this problem, because they are clear but it will still emit a red light.

yup, its all about the led's ;)

[dmw319]

but wont the LED be superbright in one direction and not like a bulb..?

[dmw319]

?

[T-Punk]

yeah, but i dont want any pink on my car and it really doesnt matter that much if they are directional anyway.

Actually, i just realized why, my LED's have an inverted cone lens that causes light to emit from the sides and top; mine are just like these ones.

could u get like some kind of blue bulb to go with them instead of red... i have blue neons and i think it'd look good for them to match

[dmw319]

yea, just look at the other items on ebay and what that guy is selling..


Naswhodi17 - thanks for the ebay link, i just bought me a pair!

[T-Punk]
