Most late 80s, early 90s Eldo and Seville side marker lenses. They are protected by a clear plastic lense over the lense I use for the conversion. Because the lenses were always sealed against the elements, they're all in very good shape. These lenses even have a 90* edge, about 3/16", around them. They're not just flat. Takes both sides of the caddy lense to make one side of the Regal. You have to cut to fit. These caddies have been plentiful for years in my local yards.

Damn you are good. Do you own a junkyard, or just spend every waking hour at one? You come up with some great stuff!! keep it up.

Mom's dealership just traded for an 84 regal 4-door with 60K actual miles, been in a garage since day one. I think it's marker lights are gonna turn orange for some reason pretty soon. I'm sure there's some in the local yards too. Thanks to this thread the parts for sale section is going to be littered with clear marker lights pretty soon. I think I'm gonna have a bunch by the end of the weekend. The mint ones go on my turd though.

If 86-87 regals came with clear parking lights you guys would be looking for amber ones.

Yup.
Just to set them apart from the rest.
I think I'm going to start a new trend. I am going to put a clear on the left and an amber on the right. Once others start to do that, I'm going to switch them around. Then, I'm going to take both out and drive around with no lenses, just bulbs hanging down to the ground. Just to be different.

Not I. I prefer the stock/original look but considering my car is completely colorless (white WO2 black-out trim) I think the clear lamps would look much better. Why have large amber blobs in the front of my car when it's simply black, white and chrome. Clear is a natural! I also plan on using clear bulbs in those clear lamps. Keep it all white!!

Then by "the strictest interpretation of the law" it's not legal.
