I've got the "regular" clear ones but they look like they're getting hazy/yellow from the sun and one of them has a broken clip so I'm looking for replacements. Could do the same old ones with the silver/amber bulb but I saw these on eBay and thought they looked nicer.
Has anyone seen these in person or used them? Just curious.
Get the smoked clear from fishcake321 on eBay with the silver bulbs. Haven't had any problems with mine. These ones you posted are ugly IMO.
I've got nothing else on the car smoked so figure that would look funny. I've got that same style with the chrome bulb but in clear now. The previous owner put them on and they don't look like they're holding up well under the desert sun (car came out of Palmdale).
I think those look good, but the only thing that concerns me is that exposed resistor. Those get very hot.. hot enough to melt plastic and cause a fire.
These are the ones that I have. The same seller has an amber variant.
those side markers that OP posted, as I have read, do not actually look like that IRL. Its a small led on one side and the light doesnt flow fully through the entire bar, so theyre actually kinda ugly and cheap.

Thanks for that. I was hoping they'd work somewhat like the LED tubes in the front headlight housings and also the tail lights. Too good to be true I guess.

Yea, if they were like that (as they show it) they would look nice. Pretty unfortunate but what can ya do.

I have them on my car. Fitment is fine and they look like the picture when lit up. Dont have night shots of my car with them on but here are a couple during the day. I'll try to get some pics when I get my car back from doing some warranty work.

Ah that's good to hear. Thanks for the real life report
You can try going down a different route... I skipped the whole clear/smoked marker ordeal and just wrapped the stock ones and removed the bulbs. Sure, I get the annoying message when I start the car. But nothing a quick "OK" button can't fix lol. And IMO, I think it looks ALOT better than aftermarket side markers.This is how it looks on mine
