Hi guys,
Any idea where to get a set of clear side markers for 2023 Macan GTS?
My dealer said they not available from Porsche....strange, as I always had them for my other Porsches.
Please advise
Thank you

If you want LED the ones on Amazon and Ebay are fine. I didn't like the bulb-type that Flat6 sells. Was a little leery at first about the Amazon ones but they have worked great on our 2022 GTS and look great.

for amber look:
I have it on my smoked side marker since my car is dark

if you want white sidemarker leds:

yorkim is long lasting but dimmer, since you have clear -- you don't want it blasting , the ambers that i have are super bright, so smoked markers look good with them, just right.

They aren't available through Porsche because only North America requires an amber lens in that location. In every othet market in the world, there is no hole for the marker lens there at all hence no need for Porsche to make clear ones.

Thank you all

Another option. A bit more pricey but looks a lot better. I have these on my Panamera Turbo ST. Paintwork from Eric at BumperPlugs is second to none.

Yep, by far the best option. I painted my own Chalk.

Let us know how you do with the annual PA state inspection.

Just swap out for a stock set. 10 minute job including a beer.

Nice job...looks great. Any light bleed through when the side markers are on?

Greg Wolfe

I hope you're not serious. All 5 of my cars have painted matched reflectors. Been this way for close to 30 years.

Mr. Wolfe

Greg Wolfe

Nope! Keeps all of the light at bay.

You don't even need to do that. Never had an issue.

You would be hard-pressed to find a single e46M3 without the reflectors painted.

I hear ya. I never had a problem 'till I started to get my PA inspections done in conjunction to my annual service at the local Porsche dealer. Apparently, your inspection station guy hasn't read the PA Vehicle Equipment and Inspection Regulations. Yup, it's in there. Side reflectors and lamps must be amber. I know, take ten minutes to replace with originals - been there, done that.

BTW, nice E46 M3. It definitely was the sweet spot between the E36 and E92 M3's. Ironically, I switched to Porsche when BMW went turbo and now own two Porsches with turbos.
