Free clear corners?

I read this at this sight http://hometown.aol.com/agspeed/free-clears.htm
Has anyone done this to their cl. Im all about some free corners if I just have to unscrew the plastic lense but I dont wanna mess with breaking out any plastic



Typically on most '90-'98 Honda's and Acura's, you can convert your factory stock yellow corner lamps into clear corners with simply a bit of patience.

To begin, unscrew the light assembly from the car and remove. The light assemblies are usually held together by a sticky "Fun-Tac" like substance, that can be easily separated using an utility knife or exacto knife. Once you have slit apart the gummy substance, pull apart the assembly to expose the orange/yellow plastic lens.

Depending on how the stock orange/yellow lens is attached to the light assembly, you can either simply unscrew it from the assembly or carefully break away the orange/yellow lens.

The end result will be FREE Clear Corners that are just as good, if not better than the ones you purchase from any store.

sorry, won't work with our cars. Look at the lights on your ride closely. The plastic cover is made of amber plastic, so inserts.

Pay up!

if you are lazy, wouldn't it take more effort to pry apart your light assemblies, than to buy one?

That and running the chance of having lots of nasty condensation buildup if done incorrectly
