I was fortunate enough to be a test dummy for some side markers...

a company sent me a prototype and I was to install and take pics, they were non working, but they were for fitment.

in return they would send me an actual set, again to take pics, but then to keep...

heres some pics, sorry for the dirtyness and damage

the first few are the before and the prototype

ImageImageImageImage

the rest are the actual pics, both smoked and clear, right now the clear set is still on the car, they seem to match the corner lights pretty good.. BTW these are a bitch to remove....

what do you think?

Thanks, and I'm debating whether I want to leave the clear in or throw the tinted in... I have to re-glue the lens on the tinted one because it popped off when I removed it...

I'm not exactly sure, but I saw an ebay item and they wanted a tester, I paid initially like $70, but when I sent pics back and gave my opinion on fitment and what not, they refunded me the money...

I will have to change to an LED amber most likely, that way you dont see the bulb as much...

look I am famous

Looks good! The smoked looks good, but I'm more for the clear. Either way, looks killer though.

I think the clear ones make the car look a little more classy.

I like the clear ones, they have a nice jeweled look to them. Side markers don't have to be amber, just leave the clear bulbs in there.

You have one that looks like mine, but it won't start MY car. I may look dumb but I'm not stupid!

Most definitely. At least G8 keys aren't super awkward and stab you every time you take a step with them in your pocket. But my key fits so well in your hand when to go to start it. Holden = weird.
