Is there a way to clear out the top corner parking lights?

the ones that look all fuzzy and distorted next to the headlights? is there anyway to open them up and take out all that stuff in there so all u get is the lense and the bulb? or is it important to keep it the way it is now?

That "stuff" is light defusion surface. I think it is actually part of the plastic.

I'm pretty sure that it's part of the lense. you can get them open, but i believe u have to open the whole light. I have seen the insides painted before. Try it and let us know

Yup, only I don't have led's or anything in the turn signals, just amber bulbs. Clear whites in the corners like yours though

I have these in all 4 corners, and in my license plate bulbs. Also got the H3's for the fog lights.
