Both side marker lamps out

Hi,

Just wondering if others have had this issue. Both the left side and right side marker lamps are out on my '07 s550. Warning messages show up periodically.

Funny thing is that I got a warning message on the left side marker lamp a few months ago, but then the lamp started working and I have not seen any messages until now. Now it looks like both lamps are out for good.

before fixing them, why not just replace the amber lenses with clear lenses and use an amber bulb.

Why not just paint the whole lens to body color for the "deleted" look instead? Afterall there's no such thing as clear lens for the euro-spec versions to start with.
