I'll bump this to the top, because I want a set, too. The orange side markers stick out like a sore thumb on diamond white.

Come to think of it, I think clear side markers would look fine only on the white colored CLS63's.
For the other colors, darkened or color-matched would probably look best.

I'm assuming he's referring to the C219 as I found plenty of those but not a single one for the C218.

BTW we have a 2011 S63 at my work and the side markers are identical.
I'll have to find it on Ebay.

I'm thinking any body shop can paint our existing orange markers for $100

If you painted you'll have to take the bulb out or it'll look Fugly..and if take the bulb out it will throw error code.

Get your oem sidemarkers painted to match your body color.

Looks much cleaner IMO.

You can find the clear ones on ebay.

2010-11 s class side markers seem close. Also the c class lights. I ordered the clear s class lights so I'll let you guys know how they fit.

5th AMG and Im doing the same thing as I did on the other 4--- painted side markers to match the body color and the bulbs (detached from the marker and still wired) are then zip tied down below the bumper on the inside. Therefore you get you no ugly light thru the reflector or a bulb out.

Yeah I might end up either tinting mine or painting them black. They are clear plexi so no ridges on the glass only on the silver reflector on the inside.

Don't bother getting extras.
Paint the ones you have now the same color as the body.

Had mine painted yesterday- my body shop tucked the bulbs underneath so I have no stupid evening glow either... body color painted markers are a must- no clear ones
