Default anyone sell (non-functional) sidemarkers for looks only?

there has to be a company out there making (non-functional) sidemarkers that either stick-on or you can mount with screws ???

i just simply want to have the look of a european styled sidemarker but don't want to drill or don't have the need for them to function, does anyone know of any out there online available? or of any do-it-yourself tricks where i can make my own?

i googled and did searches on honda-tech and i did'nt see any to my surprise, maybe i should start a company that makes and sells them, cause does'nt seem to be anyone covering it.

i know it might seem "cheap" or "ghetto", but it would work for what i want, thats all i care about.

thanks for any tips in advance,
- Jon

So you don't want them to light up or blink or anything like that? Hm. More power to ya, I guess

I'd say you would be able to buy side markers off of eBay (or OEM if you want), and just cut the plastic in the back so it's flat, then sand it down so it's smooth and put some double-sided taped on that bitch and stick it on.

Grote makes a clearance/marker light in amber, p/n 46413, but to do what you are implying, you would have to remove the connector pins and double up on the adhesive tape to make them flush against the fender. but srsly, these are wicked easy to wire up but you would have to drill, no way around it

its not that weird of a question to me, i mean i simply just like how it looks with side-markers on a crx and i don't have any need to drill holes through the body when i don't need any more blinkers on my car, and its not a matter of me not knowing how to install side-markers, thats not the point, since i just want it for how it looks then i don't need to wire up and install them for the blinking function, so it makes sense to just have some out there that are flat and somehow mount with not much damage to your fenders.

and no i'm not one of those ricers who puts fake stuff that does'nt work all over their car cause i'm too cheap at all, actually my car only has things that work and nothing even flashy just mostly OEM looking


i think it just looked funny to people cause i used the term "non-functional" and that sounds weird, but reason i would want them to not have the wire stuff all that is also cause a flat one made just for looks would also be cheaper in price, since i don't want to spend much on it.

it is funny how i put this question on the crx section and here and i went to reply to both them and while i was typing i realised instead of getting an answer i felt like i had to defend myself cause everyones saying "is this for real?" or "hes too lazy to install...", etc...... i mean it is a forum about cars and meant to ask any type of question that pops in your head right?

but thanks for the feedback

why would someone make sidemarkers that dont work?? do you honestly think they would make any amount of money off of them?

buy oem ones and rig them up to be glued on your car or go to home depot and buy yard reflectors

i like that you don't get bent out of shape really for people trashing this thread, but seriously, get it together... either pay the 15-30$ for sidemarkers and install them correctly or with duct-tape, super glue, double stick tape, doesn't matter, and stfu...
