I can look into it, I've still just been trying to get my molds straightened out.  I had some issues with the gelcoat lifting when I made the molds and had to do body work to straighten that out but I'm going to try to make some clear sets this weekend and we'll see how they turn out.

The housing is scaled to OEM size and the lenses are actually being made from a mold of OEM lenses.

I would prefer to have them red. Like 640 lights. Very nice work so far! How accurate are these to OEM dimensions?

I don't currently have plans to make a model of a mold but you could probably pull a mold from a set of the housings.  Also, I haven't printed a set to get pictures from yet but I've made some improvements to the model to have a back panel for enclosing the housing and for mounting leds.  I also just finished molds for thermoforming lenses so I will have lenses available soon and will share pictures when I can.

The holes on the bottom are 8mm to accommodate indicator lights like the following or similar but I can make them any size if you have something specific/custom in mind.

There isn't any mounting provisions currently, you'd want to bond some mounting tabs on the sides or wherever you need for mounting.
Edit: the model had been updated to include mounting tabs.
