Amber bulbs definately show, but IMHO it's not *that* bad. If I happen to come by those silver ones I'll get them, but since none of the local shops seem to carry them, it's not worth the trouble to go out trying to find them ...

Default Price Question!
If I get turn sigs and side markers the price will be $356.00???
Surely I am figuring something wrong? We're talking about 4 pieces of plastic (glass) here. I sincerely hope I am not reading this right.

BigBass, You need to saw off the old amber sidemarker lenses from the lens assembly and glue/epoxy the clear ones on. If you are "mechanicaly challenged" this will be an adventure not to wreck things.

The best method would be to use a band saw, make a little leveling jig to hold the old assembly square to the saw table and cut it off. Then you need to do some sanding to take out defects in the mating joint. Then glue together. So it is not a 5 minute change out operation.

Great, another neat-o part to put in my basement until I get the Euro bumpers painted and mounted on the car.
