My old amber corners were brittle from being 15 years old so i took a screw driver and shattered the lense and removed it carefully.
I got a question,

When you said you shattered the amber, how did u carefully take out the lense? i thought you needed to unscrew it from both sides by going inside the wheel well or whatever?

You unscrew it from the fender to remove it from the bumper. When they are out, flip them with lense side down on a hard surface and place the screwdriver in the bulb hole. From there you can just take a hammer and tap it against the screwdriver. It should shatter the lense and leave the back of the housing in tact.

Everything was explained very thoroughly in the first post -- 3 years ago. It explains that you can't buy clear markers for this car and how to make your own.

Did you just skip the whole thread and say "Oooh, oooh - clear markers - where do I buy?"
