well not sure. i thought this has been discussed before. whether the clear lenses from the 01-04 would fit an 05. call the parts dept. get the part # to a 01-04 amber lense and see if its the same part # as the 05 lense.

IMO get the euro impact strips. it eliminates the light all together. i bought mine for $120 already painted from Steve. I know its illegal to get rid of the light, but so is putting ona clear lense with a white bulb.

looks much cleaner and Euro Spec look as well.

the end of that page has the best pic of the euro strips.

Hey Citron, i love the color of your coupe

anway, i was going to buy the lorinser euro impact strips from evosport at about $190...but since $120 sure sounds a lot better, i'll go with steve. but who is he? i'd like to get in contact with him. Also, does the euro impact strips come with the chrome on it, or is it gone?

Thanks :p

yes it is. pop off the amber light, remove the impact strip. it just unclips. replace with the new strip. 1-2-3 your done.

i wrapped the 5watt bulb with high temp tape so it wouldnt shine thru at night and to prevent the bulb out warning from appearing.

the impact strips for the coupe dont have chrome. if you have a sedan he can get you the chrome, but im not sure if the price is the same. email him:
