Carbon Side Markers - The Fix to the Falling Out Side Marker

[VerusEric]

We developed this fix out of necessity as the OE and other aftermarket side markers almost never stay on once they have been removed. The issue spawns from the "A-Clips" which are loosened and do not stay as tight upon removal.



We fixed this issue by creating a carbon side marker replacement that *bolts* into the bumper in 3 locations. The bolts and nuts do not back out or loosen over time.



For the first time in over a year, we actually have some units on the shelf so we decided to start a thread explaining the kit and hopefully educating some people on the part. The overall response from the community has been very positive.

Let us know if you have any questions. We have an install video here:

Thanks,
Eric

Haha I have that issue... Maybe I should look into it. My only wish, is if you collab w Diode Dynamics (or other brand) and make this w some LED. So you got side markers that never fall off PLUS functional lights. If that ever happens you guys & DD will surely have my money.

I'd prefer rather for someone to simply make something to enable more secure (but easy to remove) mount mechanism to mount existing side markers.
Way i see it - plastic or metal tab/backing plate that is secured well to bumper, and to which, with single bolt (or maybe thumbscrew) from arch lining side, marker is attached/fixed to. This way it should stay well attached and flush, and a bit more extra hassle with mount only during first mount, when backing plate needs to be bolted on to bumper, but simple/quick unmount on all subsequent mounts/removals (unlike way more bolts to marker itself, as in linked verus video). And all existing side markers could be used without special customizing of them.
