Default Where can I get amber rear side markers?

Does anyone know where I can get amber or clear rear side marker lights? It seems this item has been completely overlooked by customizers. Ironically, the red ones on the Scion are not part of the original Toyota BB design; they are an add-on for the US market. I have had to remove them due to silly local regulations when I brought the car to Europe. Now I have two holes in the bumper and would hate to paint the lights black if I put them back on. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

The red ones are illegal in Europe. That is why I need amber or clear. Thanks for the links, but I did not see anything that I need.

The one I used was for a Nissan Altima and it just fitted perfectly. Just follow the steps in my DIY write up:

Thanks! I have already checked out your write-up. You have done an excellent job. But finding clear ones is not easy. Amber seems readily available as an assembly, though.
