HIGHLY RECOMMEND the oem ones, I've gone through 3 sets of the verus and helix side-markers all getting replaced by 86speed (formerly fteightysix) after finding moisture on my diode dynamics LEDS, which led them to failure. This ended up as a fiasco, I had to not only warranty my LEDs but also the side-markers within 3-4 months of each other all in the span of a year. The aftermarket does not do a good job of sealing their stuff as well as the OEM material ones, and I highly regret not spending the $100 originally to get the JDM glass ones. Also I lost clips on the non-oem ones and they would fall out on there own during install somehow, the oem one kept there clips no issues. Also they feel noticeably higher quality in your hand and have this felt like line running along the side and top that make it sit better in the fender it seems. I've had them now since 2016 with 0 issues and no leaking or moisture present inside the side-markers.

Also install tip, night before the install, dab some super glue into the spots where the clips go into the side-marker. This totally reduces the risk of them popping out the next time you take your bumper out and remove the side-marker. Key point here is night before so the glue has time to set and you don't end up gluing the side-marker to the car
