Clear Headlight Trims - can I use them on my very early 1999

Here is the link to the eBay Clear Headlight Trims

Here are my headlights, what can I do with the amber bottoms? I think I can de-amber part of them. Is there a way to get my headlights clear?

I don't think that clear triangle trim piece would look right on your car unless your signal light area are clear too, plus it have a washer opening & yours don't.
I think the headlight you have, the amber part(not the triangle trim) is a permanent fixture inside & out and it can't be de-amber... Unless there's a trick I don't know of....There's some member here just tint or smoked the amber section...or just do like I did & paint the darn thing to match the body...I've never like the 1st gen headlights anyway
Painted headlights

Mother is infamous around these parts
Those will not work properly but they do sell one without the washer hole. You can replace with ones from ebay or another line of thought is to paint. Just a thought
