Default Clear corners..Finally!

Well I did it...the stock ones were turning hazy so it was time to upgrade..after all I am running out of things that are stock!





Even with the chrome amber bulbs though you can see a hint of orange in them.

Maybe close-ups but I doubt from a few feet away. Looks really good.

if you want to completely do away with any bulb color, get LEDs.

It is because eBay is not a Corvette forum supporting vendor. This site is sponsored by the vendors to the left of the screen and it pisses them off when we refrence other sources for auto parts. I think just as long as you don't post a direct link the mods will be happy.
