Question Clear Corners for '97 ES

I have a question about clear corners. I have a 97 ES 300 that is fairly stock, and I really want to upgrade its looks. I found a set of clear corners on ebay for about $55 shipped. I also read the clear corners FAQ in the do it yourself sticky, which seems hard to do. In doing this free modification, will it look the same as if I bought a new set of clear corners on ebay?

Another little question, by changing the amber casing to a clear one, will it still blink yellow or will it change to clear?

If you follow the instructions as stated in the link you looked at, changing the corner lamps should be a simple, 10-minute task. Once you do it the first time, it will be much easier and quicker the second time around

For all '97-'01 ES owners interested in changing to clear corners (like the ones currently sold on Ebay), click here (just follow the first 2 steps from that thread).

Finally, I believe DOT states that it's illegal to drive around with non-amber front turn signal bulbs, so I advise keeping the amber bulbs after changing to the clear corner lamps.

Thanks lexusk8!!
That was exactly what I wanted to know! I'm going to try to change to clear corners on my own now.

i dont see how unscrewing something and pulling it out would be a hard task.
