John, i already removed my side markers from my L-Sportline front, so i that half of the process is already done. Any idea on how to order these things? That's my last task, and then i can get some side mirror blinkers too!!!!

I wish it was that easy Jon. You have blinker on the side. Our side markers are just lights. the Tom's has a very nice wire harness that splits the signal at the JDM side marker and lets you just plug in the mirror blinkers. Since the US cars do not have this blinker, you'd have to spice one of 3 places: the front blinker in the headlight, the blinker switch on the steering column, or the blinker in the rear tail light.

When this seller euro-customs poped up I thought it was him. I did ask him if he was the same guy and he said no. I saw they sold alot of they same stuff and he had a answer for everything. Very fishy.

wtf is that?? looks something alien

I know I was a fool to buy them or want them.
It was at the time I just bought my car, I was looking at custom stuff and never saw those. (for good reason). Also the picture you see is the best picture possiable. When I opned the box and saw them, I wanted to shoot him and then myself. The outside of the light which should be hard plastic, was a very soft thin plastic. And is was sealed with red tape. That is the border, red tape. No way you could take them through a car wash, or even rain. I tried to get my money back, but it did not happen.
I also feel bad. I resold them on ebay and used that picture. Someone else bought
I am sure he wanted to shoot me too.

Oh, whoops! I assumed that the front bumper sidemarkers also blink! My bad. I think the best route then is to splice into your headlights blinkers. That would be the closest. Or you can splice from inside the fuse central down at your footwell.

The worst part of those taillights is that the light bulbs inside were not behind those circles. When it lit up it was in other spots so when the light shined through it looked like complete garbage.
