    I hate this bright red ugly light on my doors. I can't seem to find clear replacements anywhere. I want to get a led to go in but the red lens cover would defeat the purpose of an aftermarket bulb.

    Revival...I have the same...I thought to myself who is the idiot that put red light cover on this? I thought of a solution, Im going to try and make my own at some point. Im going to make a mold of the original and get a kit for making clear/tinted plastic and try that. I cant stand the red...

    Reviving this thread, did you ever redo the courtesy light lenses?
