I bought mine (clear ones) from ProExhaust and received them no problems - one of the reflectors was messed up with the pegs being too small to fit - so it can;t be installed. They told SOL - b/c I installed the others with no incident and this one is my fault b/c I am not a professional installer. I offered to pay for a new reflector (not the whole set) and was told basically tough sh!!. So I currently have one red reflector and my husband and I tring to figure out a way to make the peg larger to stay in. Horrible customer service and overpriced shipping. Though through many discussions they seem to be the only ones who can get their hands on these.

When you smoke, film, or replace your markers, I assume the bulb within is a clear white bulb? So are you replacing the bulb with the appropriate colored bulb?

I replaced my bulb with orange and red, so they illuminate the same as factory.

ISN"T there a company who sells them directly instead of through ebay???

Every one of them is giving me a hard time! I just need 5 sets of smoked markers for me and my mates in The Netherlands.. so please..

Does anyone knows a company I can contact??

many thanks

Coen

Yes, your name & address is available for everyone to see, if they look for it.

Typical PROEXHAUST response!

Maybe you can locate an OEM reflector (red or orange) from a junkyard and cut off a peg from the junkyard version and use JB Weld (or something similar) to attach it to the eBay version?
