I was thinking about getting JDM sidemarkers. I want peoples opinions on sidemarkers. Here is a pic of what I was going to get.

 

those look nice, i got a set, but howcome the outlining plastic looks kinda green? perhaps its just the lighting?

I think it's just the lighting.

 

i'm not too fond of the idea of cutting up your fender to put them in, but IF you can install them cleanly, i think they'd look nice

The only problem I have is not knowing where they go. Where exactly do the go?

 

there was a post up somewhere a little while ago with a template on exactly where to put it

 

im assuming you have an ek since those are ek markers, correct?

 

who cares if other people like them, its your ride. Buy the sidemarkers and be happy.

 

my uncle and i installed them on my hatch two or so years ago

good luck, they are nice once installed

the center of the marker should be where the top of the fender and the very end of the molding meet.

It's actually JDM and I was thinking about going with the clear sidemarkers. The amber ones look kinda weird on a silver car.

If I got clear sidemarkers should I get flat or domed ones? I was wondering what I would do about getting the wires that is in the pic of the amber markers?

The first pic is of the domed ones and the second pic is the flat ones

Domed

Flat

Amber would look a whole lot better...but it's your car.

umm...yeah...
OEM= original equipment manufacturer = HONDA
JDM= japan domestic market
so I guess i could have said jdm oem, but thats alot of abbreviations . The sidemarkers come from honda so they = oem. I was just commenting on the quality and overall clean look.

go amber they look fine on silver cars and u have a 99-00 so get the JDM OEM ek rectangle domed ones not the flat sidemarkers that resemble the dc ones.

P.S. dawrenn i think your pics are backwards. the ek sidemarkers are rectangle/domed and the dc ones are flat and more oval. unless i missunderstood your discription.

 

If you get clear ones I will track your car down, rip them off, spray them amber, and reinstall them

 

i guess the ek ones are more of a wedge shape the dc sidemarkers are kinda domed

Mounting it in any other place than that is homo

just find some wires and ghetto rig it, noone will know unless you tell them

WRONG! The flat long ones are the EK's. Their is flat short ones that go on the DC and the EG.

 

Which ones are the right ones?
