well you have the choice of the items in the zone shop if you want some decent aftermarket ones that won't leak, check on ebay for other styles. Alternatively you could do a DIY all red job but you may get pulled by plod if the indcator does not flash orange.

You did not mention if your car is pre or post-facelift by the way.

you can remove the red paint on the reverse lights by using some thinners.
