Do a search for CCFL.

A bulb is in the top of the housing of the clearance strip, but it does not light up the clearance strip like your picture.

Search for CCFL and you'll find that you need to insert a cold cathode tube to make it light like the pic you posted.

Do you have a 06? Only 03-05 have a clearance strip that lights up.

You might be able to put one in there, I imagine it would be difficult. Not sure how much room is in there. If you want lighted clearance strips, I have a 05 and will trade you headlights + I'll give you some cash.

Me first want to trade! Except a bird took a big juicy dump on one of them and got a bullseye on the orange circle.

I'm not sure there is enough room in the 06 headlight housing to add a CCFL clearance strip. You might be able to do some custom LED work by drilling tiny holes.
