Could anyone please point me in the direction of clear rear lights for the 5th gen?
I’d be very grateful.

Can't help unfortunately, but... You have a cunning plan for them?

Yeah, to use them on my car. :lol:

However, if I cannot find any, I’m looking into silicon moulding the originals. Then making some out of polyurethane hard resin. A tint can be added to the mix prior to setting so perhaps a slightly smoked clear lense could be made. I’m going to use the shell of the lights to add clear led panels inside that illuminate the desired colour, red,white or orange. [youtube][/youtube]

But but but original 5th Gen rear lights are absolutely perfect.

I feel an instant ban coming along.
