Most of the ones that I find have spotty reviews. Anyone have recommendations?

The go to side markers are the ones from Unity Performance. The only bad thing is they are always on backorder.

I've been running my eBay side markers for nearly two years now with no issue, for what its worth. Sealed the edges with clear gorilla glue before install just to ensure they were watertight.

I bought these about a month ago and installed them. They give you a dark, smoked finish but they illuminate amber when the car is on.

It has rained several times and Iā€™ve washed the car twice. No leaks
The Depo ones are very good and leak free like you said. I had them, but felt the amber halogens were a bit weak and replaced them with some amber LEDS.

I have the TypeRLEDs non sequential sidemarkers. Very happy with them (the clear that light up amber)

Depo seems to be a solid brand. Had a set on my Si for 2 years and now in my T.

I ordered a set of depoā€™s since the fit seems to be the same as OEM and the other high quality brands are out of stock. Thanks for the info, everyone!

Depo. I am thinking about getting a second set just in case something goes wrong with my current set. They are so good.

Iā€™m thinking of ordering the clear ones with amber LEDā€™s. Is it worth it? I was put on the notification list and Iā€™m debating. Boyfriend thinks if I changed out the side markers, Iā€™ll void my warranty. I kept telling him Iā€™m not splicing or cutting into wires but he still thinks adding the plastic piece and plugging in the wire cable is still voiding the warranty. Is this true?? ?
