to put clear corners on all you have to take out is one torks screw, and then the whole turnsignal just pulls out a lil bit till you take the lights out of it. then you can put the lights on the new turnsignal and push it back into the grooves and screw it back on. it should take 2 minutes.

heres where the screw is located

You might have to buy orange bulbs, but yeah the install is really EASY. When I put them on my 04 I need orange bulbs which you can get at any auto parts store.

You can buy those clear (blueish) bulbs that light up orange.

hey asmodeus, do your turnsignal lenses fog up? mine do all the time. my buddy told me to drill a hole in the bottom of it, and it made it worse.

and I just used my stock clear bulbs for my turnsignals and the cops dont say anything.

that is because the seal had been compromised. drilling the hole made it worse because it made it easier to let moisture in. i hate to break it to you, but you are going to need to eaither heat up the fixture to seperate it from the housing and reseal it and fill the hole you drilled, or buy new lenses completely if you want to get rid of the moisture problem.
