One of my clips on the old sills was broken, so I decided to go with the GT2 ones. Also installed the clear markers, but I noticed they still have an orange bulb?

Parts came from Suncoast. Couldn't be happier with the service. Ordered last Wed, arrived today all the way in Edmonton, CAN.

I still think you need orange in the turn signal marker as a turn indicator (similar to needing red in a brake light).

The sills look good (deeper) - are you going to paint them and the front bumper splitter?

I'm in AB too and was wondering with the exchange rate, customs/duty, S&H if I should just order from the local dealer if the total all in cost was similar? Maybe the only advantage is if stuff is in stock there?

Thanks.

I don't have any plans to paint the sills or lip. I believe there are different versions for paint, and only in the regular sills (not GT2).

To be honest I never checked the local dealer, but my friend inquired about clear side markers and they told him $ 300.00 CAN....LOL.
