Got them on eBay. Pretty easy to install, and they look far superior to the stock markers. The originals look almost out of place in comparison.
They're much brighter too, but it's a little hard to tell from the pictures. I'll have to get some better night shots.

The front is actually amber, whereas the original was more of an orange.

Forgot to take before photos with them turned off, but you know what they look like.

I put the clear ones on ours too. They're really bright, but better than the OEM markers with LED bulbs.

Nice! I think the clears looks better with the lighter colors.

I agree. If our van had the S package, I would've considered the black ones, but I thought it would look funny with the chrome trim and silver wheels. I think the smoked/blacked out lenses look better on darker colored vehicles too.

Do they have reflectors in them? I don't think they'd pass safety up here.

I can't speak for the black ones, but the clear ones definitely have functional reflectors in them. The lenses do have "DOT SAE" stamped on them, but I have my doubts about the legitimacy of this. The SAE device code "P2" should also be stamped on them, but is not.

Thanks for posting this! I've been looking for a picture of the clear on a silver van. Definitely getting the clear lights

It's funny that you say this because I too was looking for a picture of the clear ones on a silver van before I bought them. Eventually, I found a listing on eBay that had a picture of exactly that, and I was immediately sold! I was getting so frustrated because all I was seeing was pictures of vans with the lights turned on and none with the lights turned off!

Mine say "DOT SAE" as well, but I also doubt that. They have L and R stamped too for installation, except one of mine is wrong 😂

They have the retroreflector pattern, but it's either fake or the tint screws with it.

can we get a night pic?

This is the best I could do. It really doesn't do it any justice IMO.

Well, it was short lived. Two of the lamps already have water intrusion after the first rainstorm. I guess IP67 wasn't good enough. :(

Yeah, they did so I'm kinda sad about it. I'm still going back and forth with the seller for a refund. First, they asked me to cancel the return request multiple times. NEVER do this before getting a refund/replacement - you forfeit your eBay rights if you do.

They received the return today, but keep telling me to cancel the return because they sent a replacement when A) they haven't and B) I clearly requested a refund from the start. They attached a screenshot of the package progress of the package (the original defective items) I returned to them as "proof" that they sent a replacement. They have 3 days to refund my money before eBay kicks them to the curb. The eBay seller to avoid is sportcartuning.

Have been through a couple of rain events in both vehicles. So far, so good; no water intrusion yet. Will monitor.

That's unfortunate, as that's who I got mine from.

No issues yet, but they haven't really experienced any exposure. Does it seem like it entered the seam around the lens, or through the connector?
Regarding water intrusion in the new LED set from e-Bay, I discovered after I plugged the wire into the socket and tested it, I then forgot to actually insert the plug into the light fixture itself. Fortunately, I discovered the error before buttoning things up, so pushed and twisted the plug into the socket and made sure not to make the same error on the others.
