Default Side marker and fog light help

Hey everyone. I tried to search and find where I can locate clear side markers, but I am not very smart. Can someone help?

I manage to break the tab to one of my side marker lights when I was replacing my bulb...Do the clear side markers replace the entire housing?

I am also thinking about changing all the bulbs to LED and I also can't find the H3 bulb for my parking light at the local auto store.

Please advise. Thanks in advance.

BTW, here is recent pic after having the license plate holes filed, and refurbishing the bumpa:

Thanks Scottie. Did you buy the entire housing or just the lens cover?

Your C4S looks nice from the front, and your bike list is impressive.

I'm in the minority, but I disagree.

btw that's the best looking headlight cover setup I've seen yet, and I'm not even really into those.
the black car and no H/L washers really maximize the look.

Sharp looking car.

You're not alone...I value preservation of the way the car was delivered, and I think that the orange looks good, too.
