Does anybody have a good way of tinting or coloring the inside of a glass
front parking lamp lens to an amber color?

I have used transparent paint from a model car supply and hobby shop to
solve a similar problem. I believe Testors makes the paint, which is used to
tint
the clear plastic lenses on model cars. It's available in red, yellow,
orange, etc. I once used it to rejuvenate a very faded tail light lens on a
Moto
Guzzi ElDorado. It worked great and was still looking fine when I sold the bike
after several years.
