Dang...I posted a thread here a while ago with the details. Can't find it now. Takes about 20-25 minutes. If we are talking the same style "side marker (organge light) go clear/silver on a white car. The stock bulbs don't need to be swapped out just the housing.

Hey.....I think I am going to swap those ugly Orange with the.white. against steel gray I bet it will look good.

Any thoughts about swapping side view mirror housing to polished Chrome?

For your Steel Gray the Chrome sides mirrors could look good.

The bulbs for the sidemarker (e.g., the one in the bumper) are 168/194 - the same bulb as the license plate ones.

Our W212 is steel grey, and the clear sidemarkers are definitely the way to go. (I personally didn't like the smoked sidemarkers on steel grey unless the taillights are tinted.)

I wish they had polished but no such luck.
