I will probably put the clears back in after it gets inspected though.

I installed these myself on my 2004 Targa this week.

I'd also be interested in buying a set of used OEM ones if anyone had some.
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.

I tried to get my 2002 C2 inspected and they said it will fail for clear side markers and a chipped taillight.
So what are the best LED taillights to get?
I'd also be interested in buying a set of used OEM ones if anyone had some.
I would trade the clear side markers for orange ones, or buy some from someone with extras.
I was stopped in Texas - no front plate and DPS trooper also wrote up no amber reflector - I argued amber bulb but he was adamant that law was reflector. He made me watch 20+ cars drive by and pointed out they all had amber reflectors in the front. Anyway, at the time (3 years ago) it was a no-fix warning.
No disagreement on that. Especially when the state troopers are doing speed traps everywhere.
But MD only inspects cars once when they are first purchased. Might as well be thorough, since it could be a decade before it gets inspected again.
