Time for Nookie!

Also be carful plugging the light connector in. The connections are absolute shit.

Right... after what should have taken an hour or possibly two at the most... I've finally (after four hours) finished fitting the DD side markers...

I'll post fully on this a bit later, but as [MENTION=20439]Jimboy2[/MENTION] and others have posted in other threads, the connectors - both the T-taps to the number plate wires and the ones that connect into the side markers themselves - are ABSOLUTE GARBAGE (DD I hope you read this).

There's a major design/manufacturing flaw in the latter (side marker connectors) which I will post the very simple fix for later, but there's bugger all that can be done about the T-taps which I doubt even Halfords would dare to stock being such piss poor quality... anyway... laters... got half of my garage tools spread all over the driveway which I need to put away before it gets dark!

[MENTION=23824]Nookie[/MENTION] where from and when did you purchase the sidemarkers?
Glad you got them fitted in the end; I have this to come

Have a look on Kent Mustang they have them for sale .

Think Steeda do to...

Buy them from DD direct. I got them on black Friday. Had a 3 week lead time but arrived in 4 days. Marked as £8 in value so didn't get stung with customs

I've got them here sitting in a box straight from Diode Dynamics in the US. Was just curious when others got theirs and where they got them from as DD told me they'd redesigned the export units recently, so wondered if this addressed the poor fitment issues. Or whether it was just all BS...time will tell ;)

They have redesigned, but they're still pretty wank figgity from what I remember.

Did just that. The £8 value was a nice bonus

I suspect as much

Got them from Steeda.co.uk.

They're £99 incl. VAT, plus delivery, whatever that may cost (I got mine as part of a larger order so can't say how much for the side markers alone).

I put mine in but haven't wired them until I have a neater solution to the wiring. As it is the change from orange to red was worth it on its own.

Talk to Robbie UK - he will take care of you.

Just a taster... got these fitted yesterday, but the weather's been so dull and shitty I've not been able to get any good pics, which I'll attempt to do tomorrow if we get a sunny spell.

Rear fitment is quite aggressive and looks bloody superb!

These look really good, I have a Magnetic on order and had my mind set on Velgen VMB9s in satin black, but the price of these makes them very tempting.
I'm not too keen on the silver centre caps but something could be done with that I'm sure.
Get some more pics up!
