Default Clear Tail Light Turn Signals. Do They Exist?

I'm considering amber tail light turn signals for my 1997 C2S. However, I'd like clear rear turn signals to match my clear front turn lights. Does anyone know if they're available?

I’m confused- do you want clear or amber rear turn signals? Amber exists as a ROW part. Clear perhaps aftermarket.

I'm aware that amber lenses are available as a ROW part. I'm just curious if clear rear lenses are available, for use with amber bulbs like the clear fronts.

I run Tore's amber LEDs in the rear- they shine amber right through the oem red lens.

Thanks. That may be a good alternative.

I run the same. Amber LED with Red Lens. The center is red so I think it looks good to be all red across but wanted a brighter contrast color then the red tail lights.

There were some clear/red rear units available aftermarket about 10 years ago

FYI One final thing I did to complete the monochromatic theme on my polar silver C4 is a silver hood emblem instead of the stock gold.

I bought mine from a Porsche dealer who was apparently replating them, but I don't think they do that anymore.

The only source I see currently is these guys, they have pretty good feedback.
