Cant Decide (side markers)
Tried the yellow and white (appears blue in photos)

I think I am leaning more towards yellow for original look.

Yellow because the parking lamp in the headlights are yellowish. As well as the turn signals.

Yellow....White is too similar to a headlamp.

I decided on the yellow. I like these ones over the frosted clear side markers.

Here is a photo of light off.

Hmm, that's a good question... Yellow or white... Never thought of maybe having too much white?

AG6, Neither of those look like they match. They scream aftermarket & don't go well with your current setup. If I were you, I'd go with the DEPO markers that come with chrome coated amber bulbs. Looks really clean, & they match the head lamps a lot better IMO. I don't remember paying any more than 50 bucks on ebay. Here's a pic.
