Mine just came in today as well, two days early. Here's some pics and I'll maybe get them put in today.

All done, I didn't even peel away the tire well liner. This video shows the guy just putting the screwdriver into the perfect spot and twisting and it popped right out.

At cheaper than helix, how are we certain these won't leak too? You just won't notice water as easily since it's not clear (more reflective cover). Best of luck they don't, have to give us an update in a few months.

I did run it through a touchless car wash today as a test (the works wash). I didn't notice any water afterwards, I imagine it's not going to be much of an issue for me in Arizona. :D
|
do these clear ones have a built in reflector ?

There was a vendor talking about potentially selling them paint-matched not sure if that panned out. |

Okay here are some while lit in my semi-dark garage. I don't know if mine aren't fully flush because I'm bad at installing, or if that's just the way they are. What about you other guys that also installed these, are they perfectly flush?

Just got around to installing mine and I had a terrible experience. The metal clips used to hold the lights in place are extremely cheap compared to the factory one to the point where some wouldn't even hold in place. This lead to an unacceptable level of movement because the clips would bend or straight out come out of their socket by lightly wiggling the lights. In the end I used the metal clips from my original lights and fitted them (with a lot of work) to the new side markers.
What would have taken at most 15 min turned out to be 2 hours of work and it is still not has good as the OEM lights. If I had to do it again I would order the original Japanese parts. Buy at your own risk! |
Huh my experience was the exact opposite, having never done it before it was pretty quick and easy and they've held in fine now for over a month. Just out of curiosity what method did you use to remove the previous ones, maybe something got loosened/damaged? I used the method in the video I linked earlier.

I used the same video, I must have had a shit set. :(
