Clear side marker lights?

Does anyone know where to find clear side marker lights? Not the side turn signals but the lights that go into the side arch of the bumpers.
I saw them once in a photo but cant seem to track down where to purchase them.
Any ideas, let me know.

Only place I've found is here. A bit pricey but they're the only ones.

Check your owners manual for side marker light replacement it will also tell you the bulb number. It's probably a number 194 amber also known as a w5w.

No not looking for bulbs, looking for the actual plastic lens.

I haven't bought them...yet. But will probably go smoked if/when I do. My opinion is to go dark to help blend in with the plastic fender, unless you plan to paint match your fender to be silver then I'd go clear.

i painted out all the plastic to silver so i'm thinking go with the clear lights but the smoked ones look pretty light.
