I want to change the sidemarkes on my 72 challenger. The car is going to be painted "black" dark dark etc.. blue or purpel. Does anyone know if there is white/clear sidemarker glass to be found?

You're not going to find one as they were never produced for mass consumption. However, if you know somebody who can make their own parts it would be very creative and very sharp for any 72-74 model. Perhaps you could talk somebody into first creating and then marketing such a part. They probably wouldn't get their money back, but it would look sharp, especially on a dark color. BTW, I hope I'm wrong about never being produced. With Mopars you never say never!

I would be tempted to make my own. Many 1980s cars had large, flat reversing lamp lenses in their rear light clusters. Cut out this section and superglue it over your existing lenses after first cutting the existing face off. You will have to be very neat and careful to make it look seamless.
