Is your car just missing them alltogether or are you looking for an aftermarket part??? Cause if you're missing them from factory then I'm 99% sure that Toyota issued a recall on amber corners, so call the dealership and have them do their magic.

You can buy transparent amber spraypaint on ebay or vinyl overlays and cut them to fit.

Just get RTV clear silicone and reseal the lights once you get them.

Should keep moisture at bay.

Do you just spray it on the corner lights or are there certain steps to do it??

^^^ Follow the directions on the spray paint that you intend to use. Most of the spray on tints require a certain amount of prep - will vary depending on what you intend to use.

i might want to use the tamiya clear orange for my corners to make it amber. Does that have steps because i am no experience in spray painting at all never.

Just go to your local hobby shop and look for it. And as for prep work, I'd recommend sanding it down a little 800 grit then 2000 grit. I didn't sand mine but it takes a couple coats to get a deep amber. It'll be yellow first. So if u want to get yelow fogs that's like the first 2-3 coats.
