Clear corners....

Anyone know if you can or where to buy the clear corner light reflectors that come in many of the OE style headlights for our trucks?

Thinking of painting my heads or getting them painted...

Would like the clear corners... But don't want to shell out 100 + bucks just to get the clear corner lenses...

Every state (as far as I know) requires yellow reflectors up front and at a specifc. Go to any given parking lot and look at the side profile of all vehicles - it's pretty amazing. I'm just giving you a heads up that while it might look nice, you might also get some unwanted attention from your favorite LEOs.

I don't know of anyone that sells just the reflector. I had a set of those at one time. You can get the OEM look alikes with the clear reflectors on ebay. They come in either chrome or black so if you are thinking of painting black you could save yourself the trouble. If you then sold your OEMs you would probably come out about the same cost wise?

That's true. I'm actually thinking about doing them PTM in silver or DSG...

Why did you get rid of yours? Problems with them leaking etc?

No one sells them, so if you want them it requires buying the eBay version. Just put a yellow bulb in and you will be fine. I have run this combo in Texas for 5 years now with zero issues.

Thanks I didn't think anyone did but had to ask...

I have amber led's in my corners as it is so good to go there.

I guess I may just have to suck it up if I want them that bad...

Guess I could always just night shade them would be cheaper.


Thanks Guys.
