Why not get the euro strips that remove them or even with a painted cover? The clear is so VW.

Matter of personal choice. I would rather have the signals but the amber lense is too much. The clear with a mirrored bulb looks good on Brilliant. I suppose on a black car they may not look as good. Euro strips are a nice alternative if you feel like going thru the expense to get rid of the light altogether.

they are way too much to accomplish the same look,if you have a white or silver car they look the best. on a dark car the euro strips look better.painted ones look terrible in my opinion on any color

jangy

I'd have to agree. the silver with clears looks fine. I guess i just thought of myself.

it ties in nicely with the clear turn signals on the side view mirrors.

The clear side markers you get on E-Bay come with amber bulbs (don't put those in!), but the OEM ones are clear. BUT, when you change to the clear covers, the clear bulb light is yellowish and looked crappy IMO, and which you probably won't like either, especially if you have Bi-Xenons. Get yourself some PIAA Xtreme White wedge bulbs (19172) (W5W) to put there and you won't be disappointed (I ended up changing all my other bulbs to Brilliant White so they would look more like the xenons I have - the side marker bulbs are a cinch to do yourself, but the other ones are not so easy, especially the fogs, so I had the dealership do it when I had the car in for periodic maintenance). Your owner's manual tells you what the bulb #'s are, or you can look at my posting (#9) on this link:

Also look at my postings (#'s 6 & 10) on this link to see pics of the change-out process:

Good luck!

I did the exact same thing Oblax...except I used mirrored ambers at the corners....the fogs arent bad....you just have to open a cover down below and they are right there...looks much better with closer matching colors up front.

Any other place that I might find them besides ebay?

Mirrored ambers?

vader

Mirrored amber bulbs so you don't see the orange bulb thru the clear lense but they still flash amber

Not sure why I asked,I now exactly what they are.Saw them on Piaa's web site.Lets just call that one an alcohol induced post ok.

vader
