thanks, this answers one of the questions I had..

I'll be installing mine soon, just wanted to know which way is the side marker supposed to be mounted? I'd think it's with the longest ramp/bigger reflective side towards the rear of the car right?

No, the longer part faces forward, and if you take a look at them they've got an arrow on them pointing to the front.

Yeah I now about the arrow, and I agree, they do "look" better with the longer ramp forward..it's just one of those form vs. function things I thought about. Side markers are there to warn other drivers on either side that you are turning..hence why I wasn't sure if maybe they'd face backwards, other drivers may see it better with the longer ramp that way.

btw..anyone has the Honda part number for the clear ones/wire assy?

I can look when I get home, my fiance may have thrown away the package that had the part # on it. I went with the passwordjdm harness it was an extra $15 and had plently of extra length.

would it have been better for me to actually say google it and make you search a bit? i guess thinking may be too hard for some. but pwjdm is where a bunch of us bought them. not to mention they offer a nice wire harness. but i guess i will spell it out next time for those that cant search.

I used touch up paint for the raw edges. Yes, the first cut is scary. But just make sure you cut out the template INSIDE the black lines.

Did anyone figure out how to wire them to work as running lights AND blinkers?

Thanks
