Default Diamond Clear Front marker lens 01 TA

Anyone know a source? Can't seem to find the fronts. I got rears but no fronts. Same as rears on Camaro. Afterthoughts does not have so they are out. Thanks for the help.

Found some on Ebay $50.00 shipped. Got 2 new front corner lights and side markers. Diamond clear. I don't need the Camaro front corner lights. If anybody is interested in them send me a pm.

Yea, apparently it seems that the one company making these got heat from the DOT for stamping D.O.T. approved on the clear lights and they stopped making them. At least that is what Afterthoughtsauto told me. I was able to pick up a set from a non sponsor but they no longer have them either.

You can use diamond clears off the rear of a camaro. 93-02 camaro rear sidemarkers will fit 98-02 front sidemarker openings

That's what we are saying that you can't get Camaro rears or Firbird fronts anymore.

It's not horrible. From a distance you wouldn't know probably. I'm so glad I found mine when i did. I bet someone will start making them again just without the D.O.T stamped on them. At least if I ever get pulled over for them I can point to that and say "see, they are D.O.T. approved". I'm guessing if I do get pulled over he won't be worried about my clear corners

With the set I got off Ebay if I sell the corners for 25-30 bucks some one gets a good deal and instead of paying $45 and shipping I got $20+- in them. I agree it is not worth the hassle to build my own. I had to get the fronts to match the rears or sell the rears. Who knows if I don't like the look I'll sell em as a set anyway. Vanity type items will drive you crazy and broke all at the same time.

MIKE02Z I hope your right, that would end my days of searching.
Guess I will have to find something else nearly as impossible to find that I want/NEED !!

contact IPCW directly, I was able to get a hold of some for a select few that asked me for them after I found a new source. Also, I heard a rumor from a buddy that keystone automotive distrubution has over 20 pairs in one of thier warehouses. Any Driver FX store should be able to get them for you. If you want them jump on it, I think we actually sold out the last place I found them.
