EXT: Making your own Corner lights! (Clear, Amber, & Black) PIX!

[lummieCB7]

lmao...that's coooooool..

how did it work out for you? lol

I always thought that they were hard to see in the daytime which is true with the egay ones they sell now. I was shocked to see that these kinds of corners were actually being sold online. I use to charge people $40 back in the day to clear their corners and $100 to make a pair of clear bottom bumper lights with core swap.

I did this same DIY to my CB7 2 years ago. I liked it, but I did a horrible job of gluing them together.

i mean it's a NO brainer i just thought i'd make a DIY to help people out

and yeah i would use sealant silicone or something similar!

and those look like EBAY Clear Corners!
heres some ebays

and your paying $15-$25+ for em? i think it's a rip off!

[cvc7chris]

look $25 shipped for these!

and you can SEE!!! where the reflector COULD be put on..

[92turboaccord]

that was the first thing i did when i noticed the lense coming off

[cvc7chris]

^ i would of done the same except that when i bought my cb7 the WHOLE outer lense was gone!

so i bought some ambers!

[Nas92]

so the orange part just comes off?
wat do u use to glue da lights back together?
and how do the lights look when u unscrew em dont they have that black seal around em' so how do i keep that in tact.

They actually look pretty much like Any Clear Ebay Corners!

and yeah you gotta kinda pry the reflector part out with a small screwdriver or something

but being carefull not to scratch your corner or w/e

and theres 1 screw in the back of it. where that little air breather plastic thing is you can unscrew that and it will come out easier!

and you can use sealant silicone or any household Clear Silicone!

it's pretty straight foward!

any idea wat type of paint id use if i wanted to paint the reflector another color like white...corvette status lmao

[cvc7chris]

i wouldn't paint the reflector cuz then it would totally block your light output
