I did an amberectomy when I first bought the car, but always found the replacements dull and gray.



So I bought a set of crystal clear side markers - at least to my eye it's a big improvement:



Here it is lit up at night

those bulbs look like hell now - replace them with the silver ones that still illuminate amber

I like the clear better than the smoked BTW

Agreed get some HoenUSA Chromium bulbs or equivalent the orange bulbs do not look too good in there w/ clear.

Also, on my car I actually like the smoke goes better with the Silver GT color IMHO but I do like these clear ones for other colors.

thing is, you do one amberectomy... you have to do them all around. I for one am to lazy...

I like the clear markers! They match the headlight bottoms. Where did you get em?

on a Seal Grey MK2, the grey side markers are perfect. But I can easily see where on a black car, or white, the crystal ones would be far, far preferred. And you can easily just use silver rustoleum rattle can spray paint to spray your orange bulbs lightly. Voila, no orange, and still amber when on. Been doing that on cars for many years.

I agree on black car comment but spray painting reduces the light output of the bulb. With Chromium bulbs you get same output as regular orange bulb but with no orange.

OP, wheer did you get those they would be great on my buddies black car.

considering it's a sidemarker and doesn't need to have wide dispersion pattern, LED bulbs are also an option.

I've been doing this for quite some time now and never had the LCM(light control module) complain and throw up error codes on a side marker light only. They also sell error-free bus LED bulbs as well if there are any concerns or if your LCM is finicky.

Those look great, I can't find them online either, would love a link.

Anybody got a line on these crystal clears ?

ADSMAN

Still can't find these, any help OP? Maybe from the dealer off a newer model?

wonder what the deal is with the "crazy the god" watermark on the ebay photos.

Groove, it's a typo - should read "crazy the price."

$87? I'll keep my smoked OE markers!
