Ordered and on the way. That was almost too easy, not to mention they have a 10% off sale going on which takes it down to $50.

Saw your post to late.... I switch from clear lights to OEM amber ones again... do not use the light bulbs came with the side markers, the heat will melt the housing, housing will crack, then you will se water inside... check this...

I took some pictures.... maybe if you install led lights will be better

Depending on which ebay user you get them from, they are pretty good if the product leaks etc. I got them from fishcake321... Have had about 3-4 sets from them, and only 1 went bad, which they did replace...
