Since you live in a state with annual safety inspections, you would have to take your chances that the inspection station will pass you with the painted over lenses, or change them back and forth from stock units to pass as USDOT legal in Texas.

I got them at the MB parts Dept. They were a little over $40.00 for both.

Thanx, tried that. No luck. Thats why the question. Maybe I'm not hitting the correct word combo for ebay; clear corner, clear lenses, etc.

I bought the badges from the MB parts dept. since i consider the C7 package a sport package. The only difference was that the suspension was the same as the non C7 cars, So i think with my ugraded suspension the "Sport" can fit.

I'm trying to remove the stock amber bumper lense and put on a set of new ones, but i'm having a lot of trouble removing the stock ones.
The proper procedure is to push it back towards the rear of the car and pull
the front out right? I'm using my fingers and pulling it back, but it barely moves back because i can't get a good grip on the right edge. Any tips or suggestions?
Its only two steps but i'm having so much trouble
Thanks.

Thanks Tommy. The credit card worked out and the amber lenses finally came out. Kinda tight, but it finally came out.
The new lenses fit but don't fit quick as snug and tight as the stock ones. Also, the front of the lense is slightly popped out, i could still push it down a little.

Does anyone know the difference between the two clear sidemarkers listed at autodynamics?
http://216.82.69.117/search_results....l=3&subcat=440
1) Mercedes Benz C-Class/C-Coupe 01&up Clear Front Bumper Side Lamp
Product ID: MBZC01FBS
2) Mercedes Benz C-Class/C-Coupe (W203) 01&up Euro Clear Front Bumper Side Lamp
Product ID: MBZC01FBS-E
What is the "Euro" difference? (in the thumbnail pictures, the texture of the surface looks different)
Thanks

The clear ones are not OEM and will not fit tight or right for that matter. I went through the same thing and finally ordered the color match ones form EVO-SPORT. Then i sold those I got the EURO BUMPER IMPACT STRIPS from the Mercedes dealer. They look so much better and they were only 51.00 each side.
