Orange Reflectors/Lights

Clear Side Repeater Replacement - YouTube
#62
Swapping the bumper reflectors and wing repeaters was one of the first mods I did when I got my car. I actually did it twice, because the 4 white reflectors I bought from Adamesh didn't look right at all. They are reflectors like you get on a bike, rather than bulb holders that originally came with the car.
I just did mine last night:
It's really easy to get the orange lenses off the OEM assemblies. Getting the silver/plastic backing off the reflectors is much more difficult, but the silvery plastic is much softer than the lenses, so cut through them with a utility knife then pry the backs off the clear lenses. I used hobby grade CA glue to mount the clear lenses.
BTW, it's far cheaper doing it this way than buying replacement front orange markers in clear.
