Looks nice, but I don't like the fitment.

Looks nice! Thanks for the pics and taking the plunge to see if they are actually P&P. Now to get me a pair.

No problem. Like I said I love the way they look. I have more pics of how much they stick out from a top down. Ill add later when I get home.

Ordered a pair of smoked markers. Waiting for them to come in

I just installed these today and here are some initial impressions:

1. As stated before these sidemarkers stick out quite a bit. This may be great if you have them setup as turn signals, but I'm not liking the look just yet.

2. Fitment is a bit tricky and may require swapping some OEM clips. I didn't have my OEM markers, so I had to use some double sided tape to make the install acceptable.

3. The "light smoke" is essentially clear.

4. These plug right into the T10 bulb socket.

5. I feel condensation/water may be an issue in the future. (Simply a hunch based on the design.)

If I had the option to buy them again, I would most likely pass; however, I can't think of any other available sidemarkers that are worth taking the plunge on.

When you guys say stick, do you mean like how the jdm side markers stick out?

Absolutely right on every comment. And yes I did have to use OEM clips from my old one just cause it was easier that way. However, I have not seen any condensation, at least not yet. We just had a rain storm yesterday as well.
Also here are the pictures of the marker sticking out... Me personally, I don't mind it.

I don't know how to give thanks, but thanks for doing this. Helped me make my decision.

Thanks!

Damn it does stick out alot than I thought it would. I guess I'll have to wait and see how they look on my car before I decide to keep them or stick with my JDM clears.

TheBatman · 07-19-2013, 12:23 PM

Ordered some of them a while ago off eBay, waitin for em to make it over here from china or whatever... Didnt realize that they were thicker than stock.... When I get em I'll throw em on and see if I like em, but I think I'll be in the market for some JDM/BRZ markers soon lol

I installed a set of these on mine... installation was a breeze, very simple plug and play, however two of the leds on one side are pure white, and the third bottom led is of a cooler blue-ish hue.. all of the individual leds do not match and that goes for both passenger and driver sides.. I love the way look however, they give the car a nice modern look, but just the discoloring of the leds kind of bothers me.. I'm very picky lol

That would bother me a lot too, lol. If I were you, I'd complain to the seller and ask for to trade/replacement.

In case anyone else is curious, here's another picture of how far it sticks out from the fender.
