has anyone ever seen clear lights on the front of a 1979 or happen to know of a company that makes aftermarket clear sidemarkers and turnsignals we are looking to get these but have yet to find them any help would be great... thanks

 

What do you mean by "Clear Lights"?

 

I think he's looking for clear lenses for the turn signals and side marker lights. I haven't seen them. I think they'd look out of place on these old trucks, same with euro taillights. I think I've seen those made just don't think they'd look right.

My opinion though

 

I dont think I would put Euro's on my old Ford. Seems it would look like a trendy new-age wishiwerea truck.
To each there own though. If you want Euro's, then you get Euro's. Nice to live in a Free Society!

 

i've seen the side markers shaved and it looks real sharp. it also makes pin striping it the recess look alot cleaner in my opinion.

 

we were just looking to get rid of the amber color lenses up front... not the euros in the back I agree that would look too much like I wanna be a ricer.... how hard do you think it would be to shave the sidemarkers alltogether for a smooth look?

 

I believe the side markers are relatively inexpensive (if I recall my last J.C. Whitney catalog). It's no big loss if you mess one up experimenting.

Are you moderately patient and moderately skilled at handling plastic and clear plexiglas? I think you could shave your own side marker fixtures and glue in a clear lens. Make sure you have Natural Amber bulbs in place, and it will look relatively normal when you light up at night.

 

do you mean the white/clear plastic ford used factory then yes they do sell them in the orange and clear

 

You've lost me, Man. I thought the clear marker lens was a recent fad. I didn't know anyone sold clear markers for a '73-'79 Ford. I can find those side markers in J.C. Whitney for $6.49, but they appear to be amber. I was just thinking a person could carefully remove the amber lens, then glue on a clear lens.

Or you could just leave the truck out in the sunshine for many years, until the lenses fade to clear. I noticed the lenses on my '77 are fading.

 

Ford used the clear lenses on their 1973 and 1974 trucks. LMC has the lenses in their catalog if you are looking for factory lenses.

 

actually, i thought they used clear lenses until 75? my 75 has them
