i just chopped up my old lenses and some 86 iroc ones.....used my housing....used the irocs bumpy clear inside....cut it down to fit in mine....painted inside of my housing chrome color.....glued bumpy thing in my housing.....glued plexi glass onto outside of my housing....put sealant all around the outside to hold plexi....then masked off and glued edges so couldnt see all the glue underneith the plexi....

i bought the side ones on ebay.....that was the easy part of the whole clear lenses part....

Looks good. Like that other guy said, it really cleans up the look of the car. Goes with the white paint perfectly. Nice choice.
