I know someone has shared how to do this with me before, but i dont remember and i lost the topic. If someone knows how to make stock corners into clear corners by removing the lense, let me know. I got a extra set of stock corners that i can try it with.
Something like heating it in the oven to peal the reflector off or something?

pre heat oven to 200 put it in on a peice of wet cardboard. put it in for around 8-10mins, check it often so it doesnt start to melt. take it out, take a WIDE flat head screw driver and pry off the lense, once off the reflector will come right out. get some good water tight selant (clear too) put some on the edges and and push the lense back in. need anything else PM me

Alright i tried this but couldn't get the lens off... Was it not in there long enough? Where and how did you pry the lens off without breaking it?

Long enough to make it plyable. I would also suggest cleaning the rim real well before uisng the sealant. Try some fast setting Marine 5200 in clear.

well i tried and failed, so i bought some instead. I plan on getting those sylvania purple stealth bulbs. Do i have to get another 194 bulb to avoid it looking yellow ish? For the very very corner light? The light behind the reflector? Or can that stay without making an ugly appearance?

For the 194s you can use these: Stealth bulbs
