In my opinion ambers only look good if you still have the original spot lights on if you haven't clears look nice with them on.

Clears do suit the S2's, and I'm a die hard amber fan......

I love the smoked rears.

Ambers..unless your clears are fully clear. Smash that orange filter out and get some silvertec bulbs and lose the pimple.
Here's the ones I did - excuse the quads if you don't like then: you're supposed to be looking at the indicator


Tinted rears if you have clears.


Although I quite liked the original look when I changed mine on the sale.
