Question Yellow Tinge on Clear Side Marker
On one of my clear side markers that I purchased for my C300, it now has a significant yellow tinge to the originally clear-ish plastic.

Has anyone else experienced this? If so, is it possible to clean, or is this a permanent discoloration due to a bad batch I received?

Has anyone else had clear side markers that have not discolored and can recommend a seller?

Thanks!

I've had my clear side markers for 3-4 mos. and they remain clear- love 'em. Got them on Amazon.com. Car is always garaged.

Do you have a link from Amazon? I was looking for some and can't find any clears on there, just ebay.

Sorry, no. I just entered MB side markers and found it. $49 was the price. Maybe the seller is out of them now. Good luck!

I keep finding ones that say 08-10 ... Did they change in 11? or, just bad labeling?
