The markers look like they might be the same as the ones on the regular C. Try to do a side by side or swap from a regular C or C63. If so the ebay clear or smoked markers will work.

Nexlogic and Barry,
Would you advise me to bring a spare set of dentures when I pick up my car next week?
I may need to replace the set that is dislodged from the suspension pounding.
Actually, I don't need dentures (yet), but you get my idea.

so they HAVE to put those ridiculous things on the car?
i know for certain i saw couple of cars here in edmonton the other day that didnt have any whatsoever. so what gives?
obviously we have to black them out or paint match them..but why does a silly minivan get to go without them but a sportscar has to have them.? and you still have to put up with that huge ugly shape thing.
its such a pity. the ones on the SLS are just foolish looking.

Alberta (as well as every other province and territory in Canada) requires orange reflectors up front and red reflectors out back. From the Highway Traffic Act:
I've had friends with clear reflectors get their car towed because cops aren't always too friendly with young guys driving expensive cars. I just tint mine dark to not break any laws, and make the ugliness less noticable.

it look SOOO much less idiotic, and it isnt even noticeable that way!
the separate side markers look like an afterthought.
it figures we have to have this, there are so many dumbass rules we have to go by here in canada,
last year i actually got arrested, yes arrested, for not shoveling the bit of sidewalk in front of my house quick enough. i couldnt believe it. i actually laughed at the cop when they told me there was a warrant out for my arrest for snow removal.

It's cheaper to add a reflector, than to have a north american specific headlamp cluster that includes a reflector.
I prefer it this way. You can remove it, clear it, tint it much easier and cheaper than changing out to a euro headlamp cluster, or modifying a cluster with reflector. Have you seen the DIY on headlamp clusters? It involves baking the thing in an oven!

Just had the car on Sport mode. Sometimes I wish it was a bit louder though.
