Ok heres the deal as far as I now you cant buy them. I have them and here is how you make them. It is very very very time consuming. And if you dont have patience then dont even try it. And remember try this at your own risk. You need to actually seperate the the clear piece on the corner lens from the grey plastic backing. THere is a tarlike substance that fights against you also. But remember that the lens has a curve so as you are pulling apart you are pulling against the curve and then you can crack the lens or even worse break it. When I did mine I think I crack on of the corners. It is like a 1/16"-1/8" crack if that. Once you seperate the 2 you then take the yellow reflector out. Then you put the 2 pieces back together.

I have a 91, and I have seen the clear corners for sale for like $31. I just can't remember where, maybe it was Summit Racing, or Nopi. I do know that they do make them.
I have also heard the way Mitchy suggested, my problem is when I try that way (like on my 96 Escort) I either end up stabbing myself in the hand or breaking the lens or housing.

you can make your own clear lenses on the front,but to make it easy use a hair dryer and heat up the lens and the grey backing,and the glue will get very soft and alow it to come apart much easyer,it takes a long time ,just remember do not force it just slightly pull it apart if it gets hard reheat the glue I did mine with no problems or cracks,take the cover lens right off pull out the orange reflector lens,put very thin bead of silicon aroud the lens groove and put the now clearlens back together,it loks great when its done and you saved a bunch of mooola

My friend at www.dsmturboquick.cjb.net (http://www.dsmturboquick.cjb.net) sells teh clearcorners I am not sure if the site is complete becuase they were working on it today. The green car is mine, it was posted on the partstrader.com. They are brand new clearcorners and dont look like the ones were you just take out teh yellow piece. He has sold alot and no complains other that really backed up but he has 3 sets in stock ready to be shipped. They go for 68.50 shipped COD or 64.50 if you send him a money order then he shipps. Mail me if you want a set.

"use a hair dryer and heat up the lens and the grey backing,"
I put mine in the oven on low heat :). That cut a ton of time out. Careful not to heat them too much, you'll melt the plastic.

Try going to the website linked above. I think they only make clear lenses for the 90&91, but double-check by dropping them an e-mail.
