You can buy the smoked one here:

I'm thinking of doing that myself since my side markers are smoked, and I have resistors going bad in stock light.

I think it needed small modification, but if you follow the second link I posted, that is the light that is being installed.

I've had mine for over 3 years and love it...definitely one of the more overlooked mods. Install was easy and all the LEDs are still going strong.

I remember wanting to do this mod, I thought drilling was involved though...didnt think it was worth it after hearing that. It obviously does look nice..even on the white max.

Does anyone have a DECENT write up for this mod with a link that works.

Knight do you have any install directions?

Also the before and after night pics? I also have your color and was thinking the smoke as well.

knight_yyz,

Is the spoiler light difficult to remove? My car is at the body shop right now so I cant just go out and look.....

Thanks.
