I got my Amber ones for $25.

I am thinking about getting clear ones and switching off when I get bored of one of them.

I have those on my car.
Clear S2K.
The cutout is rectagular like most markers, I would be wary of installing and reinstalling different sets, might enlarge the cutout and won't fit perfect and then water may cause rust.

I agree, clear markers look good with clear corners and 1/2 clear rears.
Better flow, I don't care if it's "JDM" but it looks cleaner with matching parts.

As for connectors, I don't think you need OEM connectors. I used Radio Shack flat spade connectors (they look like the speaker connectors) and they work fine.

Do you have any pics?

Well it's kinda late b/c I already got the amber ones. My headlights have the amber reflectors. I think I might buy a set of clear sidemarkers and when I have both decide which ones I want on the car. Do you know of anyplace that sells good quality clear sidemarkers? Every website that I have been to it seems like the sidemarkers look like they are poor quality.

Thanks for letting me know.
