Default clear side markers question

I have clear side markers for my Boxster S but never installed them because of the amber bulb showing through.

How can I get rid of the amber bulb?

Will my clear Boxster markers fit on my new 2005 GT3 when it comes in this november?

Thanks, tewino

I'm not 100% certain, but usually with the amber lenses they use clear bulbs. When you buy the clear lenses, they give you amber bulbs. Therefore, you ought to just be able to use the existing bulbs with the clear lenses. Personally, I don't mind the amber bulb showing, and I don't think it shows all that much; so, that's how I've left it on mine--

The Boxster S clear lenses should fit an 05 GT3. Don't know where to get them but there are bulbs that look clear (or chromed) but burn amber, somewhere out there.

All 9x6 side markers are interchangeable.

Those bulbs are called Phillips Silver Vision.

My clear corners for both the Cayenne and GT3 came with clear bulbs so it doens't have the "egg yolk" look. I got them from Suncoast...
