Icon2 How hard to install sidemarkers? EK civic

I have a 2000 Honda Civic EX 4dr. I was wondering how difficult it would be to install these sidemarkers:

Would I have to cut holes in my fenders, do any custom wiring, etc? Thanks

pretty easy and always works...well, 90% of the time


cut a hole in the fenders, measure correctly and tap the wires into the parking lights.

my boy has his DA side markers tapped into his turn signal tho so they blink when you have your signal on too...if thats what you want.


good luck!

yes you have to cut holes in your fenders which is no big deal. as long as you measure carefully.
the wiring is no big deal all you have to tap into you turn signel wiring.

Here's some info from the FAQ which you may have missed. If you're doing this, the "correct" way to do it is to wire the sidemarkers to the turn signals so they only flash when you have your blinkers on.
