US Style Side Markers

Featured Replies

Hey guys.

I know this mod isn't to everyone's tastes but can anyone help me with sourcing these?

I gather they are a retro fit - does anyone know how to fit them?

Thanks in advance

I'm gonna be fitting 4 smoked ones sometime this year when I get a chance, German ebay has some but I got mine with help from a m8 that went to the states

Sent from my Galaxy S2 not a Crapple!

I have them on the front of mine,got them from hong kong I think but not certain as it was some time ago but they don't come with bulb holders so I just got some capless sidelight holders out of a scrap car and wired them in to back of headlights and there is no template so I just made one out of cardboard and trimmed it until it fit the light then used the template on the bumper trim and cut it out and I just bonded mine in with black sealer

Good lad! That's DIY for ya! I've recently been thinking about sourcing them from scrap yards - gonna keep my eyes open for a Volvo S40 or likewise and have the side markers front and back off one. That'll give me 4 to play with complete with holders and partial wiring loom. Then as mentioned, make a template and just go for it lol

I was just holding out to see if there were any "direct" or "universal" ones readily available on the market for us.

I'll let you guys know how I get on if I can source a knackered old Volvo to get them from : )

can u not get the mk4 golf ones on ebay any more?

The golf mk4 ones follow the shape of the strip, don't think volvo ones will look any good m8

Thanks Kent phil! You know what it is, I spent the best part of an hour and a half looking for that particular build thread last night! Couldn't find it for love nor money!

Cheers for that : )
