clear side markers
 
Can I get OE ones for my 2000 X5? Anyone have these ebay ones?

I bought clear side markers from ebay. Not these exact ones though. Im pretty sure those are exact matches to OE ones. They look good

and inexpen$ive to boot, think i will be ordering them. I have OE clears with Phillips Silver Vision bulbs for my '93 TT 300ZX looks so much better with them than stock ambers

Very true.....I dislike all amber lights on the X5.

I should be able to get silver coated bulbs for any of the clear side markers, right? All the ones I saw on ebay come with amber bulbs. I also want to get the silver "stealth" bulbs for my rear clear tails.

I just used the reaular clear bulbs from Autozone, etc. They are only $3 and are invisable once installed. Yes they light up white-ish, but I like the look of the white blink.

BTW we350z are you a member of twinturbo.net? I used to me a regular on there "redzya in ct". I had a 90 TT with over $80k into it. Until my engine that I just had rebuilt blew up. So I then bought a red 350z and did some mods to that. But sold that for my X5. Heres a few pics of the 300zx TT. :thumbup:

yes i am on tt.net all the time (we350z), sorry to hear about your z :( I love my TT and don't think I could ever part with it where as I could see myself selling my X5 in a couple years. It is a nice change of pace from sports cars, I like having a SUV with a sports car flare.

i just got my ebay clear side marker lights today. pretty happy for the most part, the supplied bulb holder (with ambers) fit very loose so I just used the stockers with the clears. Fit was tight but looks good, only other thing was that the rubber surround was a little flimsy. Thought about transplanting the orignal surrounds but they are glued on and when i tried to take them off it seemed like they might rip :( Can't complain for 27 bones tho.

im glad it worked out sort of. i was wondering if you knew how to bake off the amber turn signals in the headlights

we350z 04-30-2007 10:59 PM

there is a faq for that on the homepage, check it out.
