I removed the clear park lights I had on at COWS because the LEDs were hard to see during the daytime. Before I put the old stockers back in, I cleaned them up real good and gave them a light coat of paint (clear mixed with a little black) and did the same with the clear side markers. I think the result looks pretty good on the dark purple color. They could stand to have more clear put on them and polished up really good. Please excuse the dirty car

And they're not too dark to see the light behind them in the daytime

They actually look darker without the sunlight on them

What did you use to clean them?

They were already fairly new, but I used Meguiar's plastic cleaner and polish. The stuff works pretty good after a wet sand with fine grit paper. I sanded the DOT and SAE numbers off the outside of the lenses a while back.

So your inside was still clear? On mine, the outside is fine, but the inside is nasty. I rinsed them out with soap and water, but it didn't do much.

Bought them from one of the e-Bay stores (searched "camaro park") and found the one with the lowest shipping cost.

Bought my clear side markers the same way, but don't see them for sale much anymore
