eBay brand side markers

Does anyone have any experience with side markers like these? I've done a fair amount of searching, and they don't seem to have an actual brand name. I like the look of them though, and they're priced cheaply.

I was trying to figure out why my OEM side markers weren't working, and it turns out the original owner of the car removed the bulbs . I figured I'd go for something a bit more flashy.

Buy cheap, buy twice. Don't expect the leds to last long.

I have personally owned this exact pair: http://www.ebay.com/itm/For-13-15-Sc...-/221920168059


They are junk. They worked good for about a week or two and then one of them started shorting out internally causing them to flicker randomly. They also developed severe condensation (standing water). I finally threw them away and bought some OEM JDM style markers and bought the white LED bulbs separately.
