those seem to be the only place that has them in stock. If you don't mind a little bit of amber color AM has those. Stealthauto.com sells the stealth bulbs.

It's an easy swap as long as you remove the wheel well covers.

I bought clear for the wife's '06 Legend Lime and smoked for my '07 Alloy. Got both on ebay. You'll need the chromed bulbs that light amber in order to remain legal. Those I got on ebay, too. I probably spent about $45 per car.

The install isn't too bad. I had to turn the wheel in to remove the clips and screws, then turn it out to get room to replace the light assembly, then undid the opposite side hardware, turned the wheels again and reinstalled the hardware on the 1st side. Kind of a PITA but it's a nice visual mod.

Simple install, especially after you do the first one. Ebay, American Muscle, Stang Mods are all places that carry them.

I bought my first clear ones from stangmods.com as a combo with the chrome amber bulbs. Pricey but were great. Bought my second smoked set from ebay, better price same quality.

I got my smoked corners off ebay. Install is silly simple. Have had them for 2 years, still looking and working great. Paid under $40.

my brother had the clear corners on his 05 v6, looked great. got them on ebay (as did I with my smoked corners)
Theyre relatively easy to install, just remove the wheel well and dig in there (have to turn the wheels for better access) all it is is inscrewing and screwing and fitting the light housing and unplugging and plugging in the bulbs and your set. good luck, look foward to seeing them
