Clear Corners for the 73-79s.





I saw that they are available so I got some! :-). I am running red and yellow bulbs.

Yes, the truck isn't done, but I got these on LOL.

We have an oversized two car garage..

Fathers 57 Chevy > my truck. I will soon have it 6 days a week, as his other project is in there, but he is only out there on saturdays.

I haven't touched it much due to the snow. If you recall I was working on it outside the whole time lol.

Awesome, that's totally worth it. My Supercab already has the clear front turn signals, and I've been looking hardcore for the markers, too.

I know this is an old post but I have been looking all over for the clear corners. I was wondering what kind of quality they where and if you have had any problems with them? I am thinking about ordering me a set. thanks in advance

Can't you get a ticket with those?
Nice Paint Scheme.
Looks as if you have a lil' rust on the corner of your truck,prolly from road salt.
Are they White?

01blueedge, no problems, been in since the thread.

Yes, they burn yellow and red, I bought yellow and red bulbs size 194, problem solved.

No, no tickets.

The rust on the bed is from a rear bumper incident years ago with a trailer.. I'll leave it at that. Truck is parked in the driveway from November until April when the salt clears up. I'll respray the truck in a few years.

You can get a ticket with those markers. But most cops don't really care unless you do something to make them upset. Great excuse to pull you over though. Oregon and Arizona are really strict with non DOT lenses though. The markers by DOT (Department of Transportation) Regulations requires the markers to not only shine red and yellow light respectfully, they also have to reflect red and yellow light from a white light source from at least 500 ft. So if you shine a flashlight on them and they reflect white light, they are ilegal for street use. This also goes for the clear taillamps too. Just a heads up.

If I were 17 and driving a Civic, or had blue and green bulbs I might be worried... The front turn signal lenses I have are clear as well, from a factory truck.

I won't run the clear taillights for the reason you stated, however.

Clear corners with proper colored bulbs? Eh. I'll chance it and play dumb.

Yes, those are legal.

They also don't have the reflector in them. the side marker do. That's the difference.
