We have had success with the Bimmian Smoked LED Sidemarkers. I have them on my 135 and Jon's 335, they do a good job at changing out the clear look and have nice illumination from the 3 individual amber LEDs.

Curious about this too. My side markers are looking real old "yellow". How bad is the "strobbing" that most talk about? 70's Disco strobbing?
OT, On a black car, would most recommend smoke or clear?

I just purchsed the smoked LED's from Trinity and they are awesome. They were about $20 cheaper then Bimmian, but require minor splicing with provided kit. Bimmian does provide a "plug and play" connector if you are concerned with the splice. But IMO, it was very easy and it truely is minor. Not worth the uplift in price IMO. Good luck!
