Is there any way to take the orange reflecter out of stock corner lights?

hmm. you may be able to put the corner lights in the oven (I've done it to headlights, but never the corner lights) and pop it out.
on my 89 gt a shopping cart ran into one of my corners, and cracked the outer plastic. The amber insert was just sitting in there and
i could pull it right out. however, i can understand saving money, but $40 for new clear corners isn't too bad...
