5th gen tail lights

At risk of catching flak from everyone knowing how unpopular it is to most I am going to ask this question: does anyone know where to find clear tail lights for a 5th gen Celica. I know they didn't market them, but there has to be a website somewhere that has them or can make them. If you can get the front lenses clear why wouldn't they have the rear lenses? If no, what about clearing the stock lenses? Can you just break off the orange lens like you can 5th gen Hondas? Thanks.

There was a company years ago that made tail lights that ONLY the orange section in ONLY 92-93 tail lights ONLY for the hatchback models, was clear. The orange part only.

They were $600+.

Sound good to you?

You cannot just break off the orange part. It's actual orange tinted plastic. You can make your own....

If you want custom lights that don't look like asshole, then you either red them out, smoke them, or if you have a 90-91, swap to 92-93 ASAP. Preferably sooner than ASAP.

Gen5

http://www.toyotacelicaonline.com/cleartails.htm

this gives instructions on clear lights for the 4th gen, and the 5th is supposed to be fairly similar. The forum is dead on that site, but the mod guides are fairly good.
