Shipping is where they get you on these for sure. Mine cost $15 to ship coming to a grand total of $50. For that price they should include bulbs.

They're $38 with free shipping on nutrend. Tax may apply depending if you're in California or not.

Waste of time

Sorry to resurrect this thread.

I just received these and they are the biggest pieces of crap i've ever seen made specifically for a model of car. And cost $50 shipped!

The fit is horrible, they wobble around and don't sit flush/with the lines of the car like the factory ones do.

It's not installer error - I spaced the metal parts of the clips to match the OEM markers and they still installed embarrisingly poorly. I reinstalled the OEM ones and they fit just like the did brand new from the dealership.

Don't waste your time on these! They look great, but I think you'll be disappointed if you are expecting anything resembling an OEM fit.

To those that have these - maybe something has changed in the design... I've installed a lot of car parts and I'm appalled at the quality/precision (or lack of really) of the fit.

Lesson learned, if you want flat side markers steer clear of Spyder unless you want some ill fitting ghetto riceboy junk.

Could these be made off the measurements of an OEM side marker with clear or tinted plastic on a 3D printer?
