Same deal here.. but its not afterthoughts fault.. the bulbs are from APC and give of a "pinker" light.. i dont know if i would call it actually pink but its not as red as it could be.

Buy some translucent red paint and paint the blub

Nobody else i know of makes them and i didnt feel it looks that bad..

I dont know about you guys but I have an Lt1 and i changed my rear side markers and just left the clear bulb in there. I think it looks better. Just my opinion. I do think it is illegal though, but I dont care.
