Can anyone help me find the template so I can take it to a body shop to get it installed.I have try searching around the web and all I found was the one for DA,EP3,EK,and DC5.

Not much but a start. You might need to set the search to "archive". =]

 

hot sidemakers. make sure you get a good shop to get it done. But I got a crazy *** pirce of 120 installed with wiring. Make sure the shop will insure their work incase they **** up....which is always a possibility

 

Yeah thats the first thing that I'm worried about is what if they cut the holes and they fucked it upp or something. well the bodyshop only charging me for $100 installed with wiring but he says I need to find a template or else he charge me $150 for making one.

Btw do you have a white DC2 Integra with the JDM sidemarkers?

 

Template?? Why do you need a template? I've installed several sets of JDM sidemarkers and all you need to do is take measurements at the base of the side marker. Then use the measurements to draw a rectangle on the fender. Once you make the initial cuts, it's just a matter of trimming little by little until it fits perfect.

As far as the the side marker location, you can do several things: you can find a pic of a side marker installed and use that pic to estimate the correct location, you can find a actual fender and take measurements to get the correct location, or you can search online for the measurements.

 

Hey you can install them your self what the hell is all of these prices for a shop to do it. 100-150 is crazy all you need is a dremel with a good blade and your good. If you need the temple hit me up its the say cut out as the eg one, dc and eg sidemarkers are the same and just like carma said its not that hard I installed sidemarkers on my friends eg's, da's, and dc's with no problem just hook up the wiring to the signals and you are ready to go. Please do not play yourself and go to a shop to do it you'll feel like a dumb *** at the end of the day.

 

a buddy of mine did this on his, where he cut the holes its kinda messed up but the sidmarkers cover it up looks good at night.... nothing like DIY!!

 

I have the CAD drawing that someone posted on here. But i took some thin card board and made my own template. Took all the measurement and cut it out of the cardboard, slipped the marker in the drew around it, took the marker off and looked at where i could make some adjustments.

It took a couple of tries but i came up with a real nice template. I am going the DIY route. Use my dremel with the fiber cut off wheel. I am going to cut well inside of the lines i draw and then slowley grind away till i get a real good fit. The wiring is the easy part. Just two wires and a couple connectors.

 

nobody has a template and in the Photo Gallery everybody has the JDM sidemarkers on there USDM Integra Fenders... Help!!!

 

you shouldnt need a template i have done alot of them without a template. measure the back of the sidemarker and make your own, if they are a good body shop they should be able to do it for the same price whether you have a template or not

The USDM and JDM fenders are the same thing.

If you are that worried about getting the perfect JDM fit why not jsut buy some JDM fenders wit the hole cut at the factory. http://www.jdmshit.com has them in stock.

Otherwise the 3/4" off the body line is pretty close to the right height. Just make sure they are even on both sides and you will be fine.

Jdmintegls has the perfect template for you the cut out is from the EG template you shoud be thanking this dude. Good job Jdmintegls.

 

thanks man your awsome!!!

 

i have the jdm ek9 side markers on my teg, got a local shop to cut the hole for me for 50 bucks and i provide them the template, did the wiring myself, i suggest you do the wiring yourself to save some money, not hard at all

 

why pay 100 or 120?? take some measurements, sketch out the shape you'll be cutting with a pencil on the fender. Grab the dremel, attatch a cutting wheel, hold the dremel nice and firm. work your way slowly around the lines you drew with a pencil.then test fit the side markers.. then unbolt the plastic fender well covers. Run your 2 wires from the side markers through there to the corner lights. Tap the 2 wires win the 2 wires from the little light at the side of the corner lights. This is if you want it to light up with the parking light and blink with the signal.. If you want it to just blink with the signal, then you tap the positive wire of the side marker into the green wire from the front part of the corner lights. and the ground to ground. this way it only blinks with the signal. doesnt light up with the parking light.

DFreezy you are so right they are supposed to light up with the turn signal is turned on. But some ricers like to leave them on just to say "hey look man I have sidemarkers on my car how JDM is that!?" lol but just keep it real and wire it right. DFreezy has a good point.
