Default Black out rear side markers

Anyone know where I can get a set of black out or cherry red rear side marker lights. I can't find them from the usual places. I have see a few of some folks cars and they do look good. Thanks...

Bought mine from "Corvette Enhancements", a supporting vendor, and they are the darker blackouts. I also think they have a lighter shade (cherry black) available if that's what you're looking for...

I can not think of any possible justification for them costing $100. I think I will buy a used set of side markers and try the VHT Night Shade spray.

I couldn't agree more... I think I will do the night shades too, probably the tail lights and side markers...

I don't know who's selling blacked out rear side markers for $100.00, but mine are only $60.00 shipped to Forum Members We've been selling at that price for almost a year now.

Well $60 is better than a $100, but still....... IMO it is worth about $20 if that
