They are usually pretty hard to find. If ephacth was working i would suggest look there. I know you can get clear one's on ebay. I do have a set of clear one's if you want them let me know.

One thing to keep in mind, if you don't use colored bulbs (amber or orange) these may not be street legal. It depends on the laws in your state.

The eBay markers do fit in the rear, but not as well as the OEM ones (gee, surprise). On my car they tended to pull out on the back of the bumper a little.

you know what, I don't think popo's here are aware of how my front & rear bumper lights work, they prolly think they're reflector or something, lol...

And that's good to know that the fitment aren't perfect, cuz I'm leaning more and more toward shaving'em off in front and rear. When I do, I know I'll be selling my front pairs and one from rear. They are very scarce comodity around here, lol... One million dalla...

I can take pics of it for ya if you want, it was pulling the back part of the bumper out about a 1/16 of an inch on both sides. Holding them next to the OEM rears there's a little bit less curve in the Ebay's. Plus if you flip them over they clearly say "front" on them, so

That's my opinion and I'm stickin' to it. ;-p
