Okay, all....I bought an awesome pair of sidemarkers, now I need a little help putting them on. While I'm not too keen on cutting holes in my fenders, it has to be done. I know there was a thread on here about one guy's installation, but I can't find it anywhere...anyone be so kind as to post me a link? Thanks! Here's a pic of my new lights:

Thanks....

its more aesthetic that function. you can see that the vehicle is turning, if you cant see the corner or tail light. theyre mostly found on european vehicles.
 






To see & be seen is the purpose of all light my son......
 












Spas, I think you're making a mistake!! Remember the whole visor thing, uh huh. :o :o :o

Where did you get those markers? Are they really the exact same as your pic? I have been looking for the top one for ever. Those are Hella's right?

Thanks!

funny you should word it that way; i have professors that'll have that carved on their gravestone - everyday i used to hear "the functions of lights is to 'see' and 'be seen'", well, at least in my transportation classes ;)

Yes, they are Hellas, and I got them off of Ebay. Put in 'LED side marker' and it'll bring up a whole mess of 'em for ya. Paid $24 for these puppies....I saw them and said "OOH! Where ya been all my life?!" lol

It's the more light the merrier with me...Thanks for the link Bill-that's exactly what I was trying to remember!

Hartman....You REALLY hate my visor, don't you? :D

LOL. :D :rolleyes:

I think your Ex is tight, but I think it would look better without that thing! I know there'll be holes, I'm just being stupid. Ignore me. :confused:

Everybody's entitled to their own opinion.....truth be told, it'd be a hell of a lot more quiet without it, but I just can't bring my self to rip it off...Now that I've had a year to think of all the mods of I've blown money on, I've come up with better ways I could have spent the money; like rims, tires, superchip, airdam spoiler, etc. But that was all BEFORE I found this site! D'OH! :rolleyes:
 






I am planing to install some side markers from APC. They dont require lagr holes being cut in the body, just drill three 3/16" holes. Two for the screws and one for the wire. They only cost fifteen bucks at Autozone and replacment bulbs are easy to get a hold of.:hammer:
 






oooohhhh, i like!

LED side markers, VERY cool. :) thanx for sharing.
