Sometimes the little things bother me. See before and after photos of the silver bulbs in place of the orange bulbs in my rear turn signals and side marker lights. These bulbs glow orange when lit, but virtually disappear when not lit. Cleans up the look of the clear lenses.

Dan, I did try LEDs in the side markers but they threw a fault on the dash, and they remained lit after I shut off the ignition. (not sure how exactly that happened).
I believe you need to modify the wiring with some kind of electronic component (resistor??) to accomodate LEDs. I returned them.

Nice job. I did this as well when I first got my car. I went a little further and did the front blinkers also to get rid of the oranges. So now I'm practically monochrome (on Silver Arctic) except for the red light in the back and colored hood emblem.

Car is seal grey. When I first saw the dealer photos, I wasn't sure I liked the wheels. But when I went to see the car, I loved them and I bought it on the spot. They are Carerra S wheels. A little dirty in the second photo. The high gloss black really pops up close when they are clean. And they hide brake dust very nicely versus silver wheels.
