Default Clear side markers

I prefer the cleaner look of clear side markers many members now have. Rick's sells them but they're back ordered for at least a month and my order's already been in for a week. Any suggestions where else to get them or does Rick's have some special tweak to theirs that makes them unique and worth the wait? I remember seeing some posts of posters that said they installed flat clear side markers made for Civics. Any thoughts?

I've got them in stock and can ship them on Monday (I'm out of town for the weekend). They're the exact same style as Rick's but with an amber bulb.

http://marketplace.s2ki.com/s2ki/home.php They're right on the front page.

Yep, 24S2k7, I just got an e-mail from them asking me if I wanted to wait or get a refund, and after taking a look at their web site it's also now posted there. He has the smoked ones with amber bulbs in case those are the one's you ordered. And thanks Ludedude. I did see yours posted and will have to sleep on it. Kind of wanted to stay all clear if possible.

Just a thought.....not that most people even use turn signals anymore, but with clear side markers AND clear bulbs ala Rick's, is there enough contrast on a sunny day to even see the flashing bulbs clearly?

The clear set I got from Rick's came with silver bulbs that light up amber (not sure how they do that!)

We normally e-mail you, not call. I was out of town for the last two weeks and when I got back I shipped everything I had, in the order (date/time) that the orders came in. Once I was out, I sent an e-mail the everyone with an outstanding order. So check your e-mail and spam filters. The message was sent BCC to everyon at once.

Update: Out manufacture will be shipping us some stock next Thrusday.

Thanks

Yes, as jetboater said, they light up amber.
