Default 2000 TransAm Parking light lenses

Hey,
Where can I find cheap (driver and passanger) parking light housings for my 2000 T/A? Both of them have cracks in them from rocks and allow water to get in which starts to cause rust in the blinker plugs.

Thanks

I just been there. The new ones look really bright. You should see if you need new bulb sockets, I needed to replace mine due to corrosion. I vented the bottom of the new lenses and removed the yellow upper vent plugs. Also thinking about disabling DRL function cause they get too hot.

Plus I want the amber when the car is off, not just when the lights are on.

My new question is where to get the Bulb Sockets for a cheaper price than the dealership. The dealership was wanting $70 per socket.
