Anyone using these side markers?

Curious how they look and how they have been wired.

I have those. Look great, wired mine to the turn signal with bullet connectors, bypassed the original side marker wiring.

Thanks man! I see you're in Atl. Not far at all from me. Are there two separate connections from the markers? One for signal and another for DRL?

The kit comes with three wires: a ground, a wire for the white led and a wire for the blinking function. You wire the ground and white led into the stock side marker wires after you remove it, and then wire the blinking function into your switchback.

Or you can just wire all of them into the switchback like I did. The wire tap connectors in the picture actually didn't work because the side marker wires are really small diameter. I actually just took off the connectors and twisted and covered with electrical tape and it worked perfect Name:  ImageUploadedByTapatalk1400424994.161438.jpg

It's been raining today, but I did the exact same with bullet connectors so I can disconnect quickly

Speaking of rain, these hold up much better than the helix to rain. At least so far for me
