i have a clear one and bought a set of chrome dipped bulbs. so it looks like nothing is there. but when the lights turn on, it emits the amber color. i dont know if there a smoked amber bulb but im sure there is.

One side of the light pops out. If you have something thin and hard you should be able to get it out. I have used my hands.

well what i did was take an old credit card i dont use anymore. i slid it in the edge closest to the tire. then i just pulled towards my chest and it came out. did it to the other side same way. putting them in was the reverse and pushing the sidemarkers inside. you kinda need to use a bit of force for it to come out. dont be afraid to brake it. after all, you're replacing them anyways. lol

hope that helps.

Not sure how much we will gain with the CLK55 airbox caused I dont have one yet LOL but I know it will be better than our stock one (for sure). And if you could get the E55 airbox thats even better.

I guess they don't know what an airbox is. They gave me the info for an air cleaner.

Side Note: Still waiting for my BS sways, looks like they are being shipped straight from Germany
