Good source for clear side markers?
I bought a set from Ebay 4 years ago, and I noticed the bulb burned out on one of them and that dirt and moisture had accumulated inside the housing.
When I removed the housing, I saw that the chrome bulb that came with it melted the plastic housing and that started the leak. See attached photo.
I would not recommend these Chinese-made Ebay side markers to anyone considering them.
Anyone know if there is a Mercedes OEM version of the clear markers -- perhaps they're used outside the US?

Eh, what a mess.
Sorry, I don't have a source for clear OEM -- perhaps the Euro Market?
I purchased my smoked lenses from eBay seller Fishcake321, a US seller, over a year ago with no complaints. I also bought the smoked markers for my c350 from them, no complaints on with those either.
