Installed Smoke Side Marker



Picked up these on Ebay about 2 weeks ago and I'll tell you that this is the best match for our darker headlights. If only there were smoked lenses for our side mirrors.

If you want to pick up one, get one on Ebay here.

Me to, the clear ones i ordered i sitting in my office, they came in on thurs, they also look real nice, maybe the smoked would look better on a tenorite(steel) grey. Oh well. Maybe I will try giving the clear ones a few shots of tremclad flat black.

Out of interest, what's the chance of getting ticket for swappnig these out? Figure all of these are orange for a reason. I'm still going to swap them, just interested if I'm going to be involved in the car stopped by a cop scene from Porky's. "$50 fine that in this county, son......"

I've looked at installing these and I think you can get to the markers from under the hood. I can see them and actually place my hands on the markers. There is plenty of room between the fender well and engine from inside the engine compartment. I don't think you will need to go in thru the outside wheel well.

Let us know how that works out - sounds like a more appealing approach to installing them.

WOW those match really well. Usually smoked ebay markers look like crap.
