Side marker clips

So being new to the BRZ FRS. I was not too familiar with the better quality side markers. Today one of the clips lost its tension and it wont stay in place. The OEM markers I had were sold and now I'm regretting it. I'm stuck with these unknown brand smoked side markers that keep popping out.

I'm using 3m double sided tape, the grey automotive kind. It is really strong.

I took my bumber off, and lost the marker light's spring clip in the process.

Clips aren’t necessary. Just use the Zeal86 DIY.

They won't wind up full of condensation like the Helix ones :P
