You can get a pair for about $350 through sunset or similar.

Personal preference of course, but I never got the appeal of the clear lenses. I have the Euro front bumper with amber lenses, same in the rear.

I think it looks great on Arctic silver.

Cheers

H4s (or H1s, occasionally) + Euro rear lenses on damn near every customer car of mine in the '80s.

(H4s bottomed out at about $100/pr. at one point.)

Personally I prefer the Amber corners all around it looks more Euro to me ,to see red turns
is a turn off !
The Euros don't offer operable or lit reflectors as US but you can easily take the bulbs and
plugs from the U.S. reflectors and install...looks great to me...Bert

There is a lot to be said about the grass is always greener on the other side! I've only lived in the US for the last five years, and prefer the red tail lights! Just need some amber if I ever take the car back to Sweden!

It is what you are use to of course. I know when I visit the US I find flashing red light indicator weird, but hey, you are on the wrong side of the road too!

im usually all about the euro parts ..they always get the better stuff i always say..
but with the tail lights i can say i prefer the uniformed red all around vs the orange on the outside. i think its the only euro mod i have no desire to do.

Not a fan of the Orange. Looks like Christmas tree lights. I like my all red against the silver across the rear. Just my opinion.

I really believe that we are on the right side of the road.
