Ok, I've searched and searched and searched and can't find clear side markers for my '00 I30 to save my life. I've seen responses to this question pointing people to SCO as well as Paradox Systems, but I can't find them on SCO at all, and Paradox no longer makes them. Someone had also said something about custom enterprises, but I can't find anything about them. If someone could help me out with this I would really appreciate it because I can't think of anything else to do.

i searched a little for you and couldn't find anything either. custom enterprise is out of business i hate to say. if you can't find them, another option is smoking the lenses. it's up to you. let us know if there's anything else we can help you with.

Maxima and I30/I35 have different side markers. Maxima's are longer and more narrow than the I30's.

I can't understand why there aren't any available. I'm guessing that people have stopped manufacturing them do to legal aspects. Although my understanding of sidemarkers has always been that they are there to allow someone to determe the front of the vehicle from the back from a sideview at night. So it would seem to me that with this being the case, wether they were amber or clear would make no difference, as long as the rear markers were a different color. I emailed Paradox About to ask why they stopped making them and if they had any intention of making more, but I'm still waiting on a reply.

They're not making them because the number of potential buyers is pretty much limited to all of us here on this site - and most of us drive Maximas. The combination of the side markers costing a rediculous $70, and the limited number of interested buyers makes for a no-win situation. The cost to manufacture the side markers outweighs profit.

Clear corners are too much. Just buy some uncut smoke overlay film and smoked them yourself. Here's my 02 I35 sport that I smoked the sides and tails.
