i too have the helix ones and haven't had any issues, but i wouldn't be surprised if i do. one thing i noticed with the helix though (dunno about JDM) is that they don't actually serve as reflectors at all

Thumbs down

Don't get Helix sidemarkers. I had mine installed for about 8 months and look at this.






LED inside was completely rusted and destroyed.
There was water, ice and dirt all over inside.


Just spend the extra $$ and buy the real ones. I wish I did.
