(Thread Starter) | Neutral : +1 score Decided I didn't like my side markers and tried something new. Here is the write up and pictures of my custom LED side markers. bought smoked side markers off ebay and cut them open. attached amber LED strips. They were 16 cm (about 6.5 inches) long I used a 194 LED bulb I had as a socket to run the LED wires through and plug into the relay. attached wires to bulb put all back together Back on the car, couldn't tell by looking at them they are LED (no flash) up for opinions and thoughts: |

Also, apparently you're incapable of reading. In the OP it says he "cut them open."

| Not Ranked : 0 score haha this thread is so dead but just trying my luck. I don't know if you've tried it, but it almost seems impossible to just cut them open. I think I'll have to bake them first, but wanted to confirm if he baked it before cutting them cuz I don't want to destroy my side markers.
