Sidemarkers installed

Havent posted in a while but I just installed my sidemarkers today so I felt the need to. relatively easy to do without the harness. maybe 3 or 4 hours and a couple Captain and Peppers later.

jaysmith had one on here that i found.. just make sure that the dimensions it says are the dimensions it prints otherwise youll be screwed.. pretty easy though.

i used it as a base of where to position it then slowly kind of shaved away with my jig saw til it fit right.. good luck im really happy with mine.

UGH

i wanna buy and do this but i am thinking i would probably need an extra $130 to replace whichever side i mess up on.

that aside, that really does look like a clean install and factory fresh.

good job!

thank you!
lol yeah thats exactly what i thought too but its really a lot easier than you think.. just measure a hundred times and cut once lol and it would have been easier to use the harness that you can wire it up to but im wayyy to impatient to wait for that.

well the lights and sockets were like 23 bucks or something like that from one of the guys on here.. the sockets and wire taps were a couple bucks from the local auto parts store.. aside from that the captain morgan was the most expensive part lol..

Doing mine soon. Thanx for info you pmed. One last question. You just removed fender liner to access wiring right? I want to wire to turns and runnings. I'm using the harness password jdm sells, and plan on running one wire to turns and other to runnings. Dont want to remove bumper or headlights though. I think you told me liners can be removed to access all wiring but not sure?

Also jdm red emblems for the win. Looking good.

I removed my wheels and my fender liners.. It was really easy once you do that.. I didn't wire them to the running lights so I'm not sure as far as one wire to each..
