Are there any companies that make clear corner (euro) lights or clear tail lights for Land Rover Discoveries? Or even black-out lights. I am looking to give my Disco a bit different look and thought that would do the trick. |

If these companies exist, a search on Yahoo or Google with the words "Discovery Clear Corner Lights" or "clear tail lights" (or insert "Land Rover" into a few of those searches) could do the trick. FYI, and I mean to be a prick, but clear tail-lights are only asking for trouble unless you like being rear-ended. You can take that last comment any way you like. |

And some states they are not legal I believe. My friend has a prelude and he got a ticket for having them. |

They are not legal in any state unless they are DOT approved, per federal law. Are most police officers going to haul you in to federal court, NO. When some guy, not paying attention, hits you in the rear and screws up his back, you are at fault for having non-DOT conforming tail-lights. Meaning you are paying for his new house. Hey, but that is the price to pay for being cool. |

Besides, once all the rice rocketeers do it, it's been ruined for the rest of us. You could add glass packs, neon, and a pinstriped heartbeat across the windshield and your done. |

I would also like to get some clear turn signals on the front to match the clear sidemarkers I have. I don't think that even comes close to being ricey. Personally I wouldn't want clear lights for the rear as most of them look cheap and cheesy imo. |

Somewhere I saw where you could use the Range Rover clear lens. Never seen it though. I want some of the clear lens for the tail lights and does anybody know where I can get a lowering kit for my disco? You know the ones that will make my brush guard scrape the ground if somebody inside coughs. Does anybody sell genuine Land Rover dingle balls to put at the top of all the windows?

the clear lens on RR are the parking lights. the turn signals are amber. some folks add a brighter bulb for the parking light and have "city" lights.
