Front Corner Lights

does anyone know anything that can be done to the orange front corner lights on the SL?
i've been looking for clear light replacements but with no success.
i was thinking about blacking them out, but not sure of the best way to do it.

any suggestions?

Those inserts into the bumper are for US cars only. European cars do not have them, so the best way is to buy inserts for a European car. No idea whether it's legal to remove them in the US.

What do these lights do anyway? Are they on all the time you are driving or are they indicator repeaters?
