Clear rear side markers?

Has anyone seen any clear side markers for the back end on the market yet?

I don't think nightshades would look good on my silver car... but I wanna get rid of the red... so I'd like to get clear ones and run some red bulbs.

On a slightly related topic... Cobalts have been out for 2 years now... and we still haven't seen any euro tail lights???

Honestly, you should just paint your rear side markers silver. Clear ones would look tacky IMO.

Well... on the coupe, the taillights are so small and already awesome looking; I don't think any company could make an awesome chrome/crap/clear/awesome taillight for it.

I do remember somebody posting a picture of Euro taillights for the cobalt coupe though....






.... Oh I found it!

I thought that was only if the tailights are not visible from the side when lit. I think you can see ours from the side and the markers are not necessary.
