The end result really puts a 90s truck back into the 80s IMHO it’s a nice touch that’s different . If you’re looking for the look I’d recommend to give it a go.
It brings the visuals and illumination of the turn signals to Life with amber lenses.
I thought I’d show the final touch and steps on how the tint worked out.
New lenses (Diffused)
New LED Corner markers
400 grit
skip the 400
1000 grit is all that’s needed even though I did both .
2k rattle clear with hardener activator
I did 7-8 coats , but only showing the first coat #1 # 2 and final coat #8
There are two options out here for the paints .
Product # Mc205 It’s more-less a transparent tinted clear. The final match is 75% relatively close to the OEM gm corner markers factory (color).
You could do one of two things to match them . Buy a set of the crystal clear corners 1000 grit and tint them which I am doing later today with clear LED corners , and get a 100% match with all the turns
Or 1000 grit the stock Gm corners and tint over the factory .
Suggest a good 2k clear rattle spray with hardener , unless you have an automotive grade spray and clear on hand .

I opted for the duplicolor metal cast orange copper anodized paint. Both seem to work very well..Product # Mc205 It’s more-less a transparent tinted clear. The final match is 75% relatively close to the OEM gm corner markers factory (color).
