Clear 2nd Gen. Front Corners

My '95 LX (US Model) came with clear corners. The 95's had the turn signals down in the bumper, the corners are parking lights and are lit when the headlights are on.
So if you want "J-Spec"clear corners, look for a 95 in a junkyard. I don't know if 96's are the same, it depends when Mazda moved the turn signals out of the front bumper.

95-96 are the same clear corners with turning indicator in the bumper. 97-98 had the ones from the bumper removed and moved in the place of the clear corners. That is a big difference between the fronts of 95-96 and 97-98. But I am not sure what you are asking for? Clear corners for 95 or 96? Or clear bumper turning indicators for 95-96? Because if you are looking for the bumper ones, you might find them on e-bay, or a custom made one. Otherwise, 95 and 96 are the same.

Ok, I know what he's talkin about......
Yes, the 95-96's came with factory clear corners, and turning signal lights in the bumper.

The 97-98, got rid of the lights in the bumper and moved them to the side of the headlights... The clear corners from the 95-96 will not fit in the 97-98's.....

I think there is one or two screws that hold the side marker on. Just remove them and it comes out, the closest side to the headlight first (it has hooks near the fender). You can replace the origional bulb, which I'm pretty sure is a wedge type, with one that matches the color of the headlight bulbs. Usually, the headlight bulb manufacturer sells accesory bulbs to match for just such a thing!!!
