On my metallic silver car, I used white with a hint of blue LED, but I'm converting the side marker to blink with the blinkers.

I am on my third set of ebay clear side markers all of which have water evaporation in them. Can anyone recommend an Ebay seller that actually sells side markers that do not leak?

Lowkut, put some silicone around the nipples of the lights... helps seal it nice and tight

I was looking at those But I'm not sure if it'll look right on the gs. I'm planning to mod it to blink too.

So what's up with the pictures not loading? Is the forum being strict like youtube now? I was trying to look up some pics on LS430 retrofit from JnC and they are all removed. =\
