ok, you are new to the club, so welcome, ignore ronnie, he's rude j/k. the process of actually making clear corners involves from what i understand, baking the turn signal housing for 10 or 15 minutes at a certain degrees, prying off the old amber piece, then molding some sheet plastic over the housing and sealing it with rubber cement or some silicone sealant. basically, this is nearly impossible to do, and i know for a fact, 2 attempts at this have been made, 2 attempts at this have failed miserably in this club. there was a group buy arranged where there were to be 15 of these sets custom made...well, people didn't have the money, only 10 sets got made, and basically, chances of you ever getting clear corners for the front of your car is a 1 in 16 chance...and thats if one of them will sell you their clear corners. i'm attatched to mine that i bought, so make that 1 in 15. clear corners for first generation protege's exist no where else that any of us know of except for roughly 16 people that are either tied directly to this group, or known by Groharlem... and don't ask him. i appologize for this, however, you're stuck without clear corners unless you learn this process yourself...and you can begin by using yahoo or google and searching for something on molding plastics. i don't know of the availability of the materials to make these, so you're pretty much left out in the dark, sorry.
peace

Just thought I'd mention that if you are serious about Clear Corners. There is a group buy for new authentic JDM Clears going on. The only catch is that I don't think they will fit along side our DOT headlamps. Here's the link to the Group Buy if your interested: E-spec w/ JDM Clear corners
