Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1Original post

I changed the side markers and here are some pics. I will say one thing, when popping the lens out I was afraid that I was going to break it, but it just took a pretty good pull to pop it free. The rest was easy. This is a small plug that I removed so I could get a scxrewdriver in to push on the release spring. I think it would have popped out without doing this. If I can do it anyone can do it, believe me! Russ

POST 3Original post

Yes Russk, this is the type of thing that should be posted as an article, maybe I can clean it up and do so as well, that way it is easy to find in the do it yourself article area on mods, this one being cosmetic.

POST 4Original post

RussK...IMHO actually like the yellow sider markers better in your color. But glad you like the clear ones. Enjoy your car and PLEASE keep those driving reviews and those OH AHH experiences comings ....!!! .....COCO

POST 5Original post

Those clear side markers look good Russ. While at the dealer having my rims cleaned there was a top-down Speed Yellow 997 Cabrio with clear side markers as well as painted to match sport seat backs and the painted center console. A great opportunity to see what these customizations would look like on my car. Also got to see a 997 with those 20 inch Black TechArt rims . It's dangerous visiting this dealer on a Saturday morning!

POST 6Original post

Coco, I think if you see the car as a whole you can see why the clear look cleaner and more brillant. The photos don't do them justice. The orange markers were the only orange on the car and I felt it just had to be eliminated. Now it has just blue, clear and red on the exterior. The clear markers really sparkle like diamonds. mpollard, that Techart car is beautifuland there really are more temptations than Ihave money. Russ

POST 7Original post

Russ, I purchased the clear as well and am awaiting my car next month to install them. Question - Did you just pop them out, or do you have to push in on the release spring? I have never done it and don't want to mess it up. Thanks.

POST 8Original post

mmarantz, I actually just popped them out. I did stick a small screwdriver in that little hole, but I never could find the spring. It did feel like I was going to break them and then all of a sudden they popped out. I would try to use both the screwdriver pushing on the spring and pressure. Russ

POST 9Original post

Russ, the clears look much better! It's cleaner looking now. Good job!

POST 10Original post

Maybe you should smoke those sidemarkers, especially with the Cobalt

POST 11Original post

Our dealer (McKenna) deilveredour Seal Gray Cayman with clear markers already installed. They did that without a word and had it ready for us on delivery day. That is great service!! Deebs001

POST 12Original post

I concur Russ, the clear is cleaner. Does anyone know if there are legality issues with replacing amber for clear?

POST 13Original post

Another vote for the clear ones from me. They look nice.

POST 14Original post

No legal issues as long as the bulb inside is amber. I did see a Basalt Black Porsche at the dealers and amber looked pretty good on it. Russ

POST 15Original post

deebs001; Saw that Seal Grey and the wife said that was her second favorite color. I too was surprised that dealer does this as part of their PDI (or so Im told).

POST 16Original post

hvdcman, We too were surprized that the clear markers came already installed. We really did not know they were available or had thought to change them out. But once we saw them there was no doubt that was the way to go. It's nice to have a pleasant surprise now and then...

POST 17Original post

Thanks Russ!. Very Timely, I just had ordered my clear markers 5 minutes before seeing this post

POST 18Original post

The clear markers look much much much better on a cobalt blue Cayman/fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/MWPX/thumbsup.gif
