I think I know what you're talkin' about. The orange colored lights on the fender that come on when your parking lights are on. If you're trying to clear them, I think your best bet would be to find some clear replacements. But if you really want to take the cover off most of those covers are just popped in or may require some turning counterclockwise to pop them off.

I believe these lights are only on the North American Lanos.

You will have to remove them, get a heat gun or blow dryer to loosen the glue(silicon around the enclosed area, peel it off, then chip out the orange plastic panel, replace the bulb with an amber colored bulb(to stay legal) and replace the front cover and glue or silicone it back in place and reconnect it. Make sure it is sealed or it will collect moisture and you;ll be replacing bulbs all the time. :P

I don't think that it's an orange film that can be peeled off. It looks more like orange translucent plastic. So you may need to fab up some sort of clear marker lights.
