if you want amber bulbs included, be sure to contact seller before bidding and ask. some people will leave the clear bulbs in and others replace stock one with amber ones. do a search on here for markers and you see other threads. i know that some have mentioned that aftermarket lenses don't fit as snug though. however, people have found ways to make them fit better.

Obviously on a 2005 they are clear, halogens & Bi-X, so I would go with the second pair. They complement the headlights much better.
The first pair looked good on those who still had the frosted halogen headlights (2001-2004).
There was a thread about this just last week with tons of pictures, including those of us who opted for no side-markers at all, and went with Euro Strips (with chrome, without chrome, with PTS, without PTS).
quick search, will give you pics of what they all look like in different combinations.
on a side note... be on the look-out for a San Diego MB meet this summer !

The S.D. MB meet is just a good idea right now. Unlike me, who will drive just about anywhere in SoCal for an MB meet, most San Diegans don't like to leave the county. We're trying to get interested people to start submitting ideas in the "EVENTS & GATHERINGS" threads: any San Diegans ? Hopefully, we can put something together for the summer, so we can do an all-day event. Meet, pictures, BBQ, photographs, beach cruise, dinner, whatever ! Also, would be good to get some of the local MB tuners to either come out or sponsor, invite the Mercedes-Benz Club of America (San Diego Chapter), as well as the 3 main dealerships (San Diego, Escondido, & Hoehn). Of course, LA, OC, and Riverside folks are all invited to come down for a change ! All still in the brain-storming mode.
Will let you know, when things begin to pan out.

man, this thread is DEJAVU !!!
it's the same thing every week !
I usually answer most questions posed, but this is getting ridiculous !
how do you remove amber markers ? what about clear markers, which ones? where ? how much ?
euro strips ? what are they? who sells them ? how much ???
sorry guys, but this same topic has been killed to death. It wouldn't hurt any of you to do a little searching.

Citron, you mentioned that you purchased pre-painted euro strips from Steve for $120. Is there an easy way to get a hold of Steve?
