Default Clear Side Marker Lights GS300

I'm looking for a good set of clear side marker lights for my '02 GS300. Not the $2.99 joints they sell on Ebay, but a good fitting tight set of clears...I see a lot of them in the profile pics and they look good...any suggestions...thanks...D

welcome to CL- the OBX markers arent that expensive at all and still look to have stock type quality except they are the clear that you're looking for.. pick up a set of those...also, if youre going to be hanging around here for a while hit up the "search" function its great

welcome to CL!! A lot of people have the ebay ones, which work fine....but it pays to seal them good before installing them, to avoid unwanted moisture getting in there. Another good source for them, and for other used parts for your GS, is in the classified section...there's always good deals to be had

I got the OBX and used the Polarg m4s they look good at night. Have mine for about a month in a half no moisture problem so far.

The bulbs that came with the OBX clears, were they yellow or white colored bulbs?

depends where you buy them. one obx ebay seller sells with blue bulb and another seller sells with amber.

obx are nicest and look oem, but they are still not oem quality.

On the very bottom of the bumper nearest the wheel there is a screw, remove it and carefully peel back the fender wall. Stick your hand in there and twist off the connection. Should be a two min. job at most.

I'm looking to get some smoked ones too for that same reason flocko, I thought it would stand out too much. Do you know if the depo ones are decent quality? They're the only brand I can find that makes smoked side markers
