Clear side marker lights
I forgot...I also changed the orange side markers to clear with $50 ebay buy that included silver bulbs.
I read before that the easiest way to do this was to turn the wheel and remove the push pins to get the panel out. I found it easier to jack car up, remove the front splash shield, either 4 or 6 screws, and I easily reached right up to the back of both sides. Bulb just pulls out and new one pushes in. The driver one didn't snap in tight so I had to reach in again from behind and pull it and it snapped tight.
Looks fantastic on silver. Matches chrome and side mirrors.

You know...I didn't take pics but you definitely can google cls550 and I bet you will find hundreds of pics with the orange front side lights and hundreds with clear. It is such a simple and amazing change.
I will take pics of my new(old but new to me) cls550 as soon as I find some wheels.
