Are they really close to the tail lamps? or do you notice any difference? I'm on the fence about not matching lol

I've got them on my Fifty, and they match the NGM superb, as well as the GM dark tail and the ZL1LE third brake light.

I did also have the passenger front go out, so it may be a batch issue, but the replacement has been super fast. I've got nothing but good things to say about them so far.

I'd take a pic, but my car is filthy right now because I got caught in a rain storm, so I'm embarrassed about showing it.

I'd say they are pretty close, leaning slightly darker. I think the darker version looks better against my paint color than the lighter version would. They are a huge upgrade to the stock lights.

Two week review: I'm a big fan of these over the stock markers - no issues at all, look great (especially on NFG) and simple to install once I realised that I had to plug these into where the original bulb sits (I was puzzled for a minute or so when I first went to connect them and couldn't figure out what I was missing!)

The below photo does the side-markers, and the car, absolutely no justice!

All orders sent after mid May will be the new darker versions

Looks great! Thanks for posting the pic!

Installed the replacement front passenger last night, worked great. Started up my car today, and now both front markers are out (rear still work). I wonder if it's batch-related and something related to the current? Stock bulbs and markers work fine. Something is shorting out the LEDs or the LEDs are shorting themselves out.

Had my front driver side go out today too. Only had them on for a couple weeks so I sent an email for a replacement. It was hot here today near Chicago and wonder if it's heat related, with the fronts getting some soak from the engine?

My third replacement which I just got 2 days ago also went out. Definitely something weird going on.

Agree. My drivers side was out this morning, so now both fronts have failed.

Glad I’m not riding solo on this one!

I realllyyyyyy love these markers. I always get looks when they’re on. I hope the issue with the front markers is fixed soon. It’s like one works, but when you add another, they both go out or the one goes out. I didn’t have this problem with the older ones I received in March. Though two failed (probably heat or weather related) on the driver’s side, the failure rate wasn’t as frequent as the new ones I got, nor were the issues related to the front markers specifically.

Edit: I’ll def repurchase once things are sorted. Great company and great customer service!!!
