Clear corners installed
I did the clear corner install yesterday. What a PITA! The end result was worth it though. They look simply amazing.
Big thannks to Matt at Corvettes of Houston and to everybody here who helped me.
This forum is a great resource.

glad I could help....there is really no way to describe parts of the process but I think a lot of it is self explanatory after you get into it. Add in some

I also used pewter99's directions, other than having reversed a bulb and getting a hyper flash (my fault for rushing) the job only took less than an hour. great write up!!! If you email me a pic I'll host and post it for you. Bill

Was considering these for my MSG. I like the orange driving light look though. Do these bulbs inside of the clear then do away with the orange lighting and are a white running light? And if orange is installed, does it light up the area as full as the OEM look?
Thanks

I used clear amber 194 led for the side markers, and Silverstar clear amber for the turn signal/ running lights. They look clear but when lit they look like stock amber but a little brighter..

Congrats! Very cool....
I got mine on... almost the next day I was gifted with some blackouts (thanks to StuzVette) and I haven't seen my clear corners since
