I'm going to clear out my tails today and wanted to know if I need to change the bulb to an amber bulb like in the front clears. In the 2 sets of instructions I've read I haven't seen that mentioned. If I do, what # bulb is it? Also, any other tips before I start? Thanks.

1/2 way done and then...

I did the passenger side fine. Housing came out, cover came off, put clear plastic piece in, put together and back onto car and it looks and works great.

Then the driver's side. When I was separating the cover from the housing I cracked the damn thing. Oops!!! Now I need to buy a new cover for the light housing. Can I buy just the plastic lens cover? The rest of the housing is is perfect shape.

Where can I buy this piece? Dealership? Ebay?

Thanks.
