Side Markers
Any ideas on something different for the side turn signal markers? My passenger side marker has a broken clip and is currently held in with some double sided tape but that isn't holding securely enough. Called the dealer and they want $28CDN for a new one. So if I am going to be spending $$$ I thought I would see what is available out there that might be a little different. I read the side marker mod thread where you can replace the bulb with different color LED's but I would rather keep this as an amber turn signal. I am not really crazy about the compound bug eye look of the original. I prefer something a little more "crystal" like where you could either use LED or coated bulbs (so you don't see the amber bulb). Found some "universal fit" LED markers on EBay but universal fit sounds like you might have to glue them on rather than the specific clips.
Thoughts... ideas... pictures... ???

I haven't seen a product specifically designed for our cars yet, just generic stuff.
Get creative!

Well I was thinking of some sort of James Bond like mechanism that would extend out sideways and shoot rubber tipped darts onto the trunk of people ahead of you. On impact a flag unrolls and flaps in the wind saying "JERK" in big letters until the person stops and notices it. Particularly useful after getting cut off.
