Consider making your own using the stock markers, carefully cutting of the colored lens, then forming clear lenses from drop ceiling light panels or some such. Might try it myself. I just finished making new emblems for the front and rear of car.
Those ceiling panels are made from crap plastic and they go yellow as they age, put them in sunlight and they will not last too long is what I'm guessing. Plastic parts on these cars have UV damage limiting additives in them. Mind you the trouble some have with the headlights one would doubt that statement.
