got mine installed! clear ones.. wasn't too bad.. a little nerve-racking at first lol.. debating if I should heat up the sidemarkers and paint the white part black.. give it a darker smoked look =)

 

^Post up pictures!

And what template did you use? Could you provide us with one? I would love to have sidemarkers installed.

Thanks.

 

I used a DC5 template and modified the location a little bit to make it about 1.5" lower off the accent line.




sorry don't have any other pics at the moment like side shots or night shots.. it was too bright but I'll be sure to get some good ones soon!

 

That looks awesome, great location. If you have time a template and a wiring DIY would be much appreciated, great job!

 

looks great now we are the only 2 usdm fits with sidemarkers....o btw leave them clear....

 

that's 2 fo sho. Yeah I'm really likin the clears more and more.. plus the my bro's amber ones don't fit so as well.. the clears seem a bit bigger, just a little.

 

i for one am not debating on the cutting but wich side marker. From what i understand, JDM=clear for the the fit. but i have some amber ones from my last jdm ef. do i put the ambers on instead? hmm i wonder how it would look. then again, i would be the only gd3 with amber sides, ftw!
What do you think, lemeknow.

 

well couldt you make the hole fit either one? how different are the clear vs amber? do they make clear versions of the ambers you have now? throw the amber on and then if you dont like it get clear versions.

 

Would only fit if you cut EF template hole into your car and bought clears. The sidemarkers we are using are for DC5, in which yes, there are both clear and amber ones. I've seen OEM Fits with either clear or amber.. so do what you like, I went clear b/c it looked cleaner on silver.. I put my bro's DC5 amber ones in too and I like that as well.. so I mean I could do either, depending on what I preferred. Unfortunately, the amber ones, some odd reason fit a little smaller. Choose one and stick to it when cutting the fender.. b/c not all sidemarkers are made exactly the same...

 

true that...
