well, update on my markers. I just noticed tonight that the front driver side leds had failed. About 5 or 6 leds have died. So right around 9 months or so of ownership and they failed. Contacted AAC about replacement today, we will see what happens next.

Oracle side markers suck plain and simple. Looks like they're still using the same cheap leds and boards. Learned my lesson on my 5th gen as well. Went with DD sidemarkers this time. Looks a lot better too

Keon, they have a bad track record with quickly failing LEDs.. I can’t dispute that. I had 2 sets failed on me.. & countless others. I was hoping this gen would be diff.

Looks=opinion
Failure rate=Fact
Glad you like yours. Doesn't change the fact they are cheap LEDs and have a high failure rate.

Sounds like your trying to teach me something , I am just saying that mine don't suck like you say they do and i haven't had a led fail so regardless of previous purchases some may of had as mine are working fine and look great = opinion... Besides the point i paid $147 shipped so i can't complain about anything unless they fail and don't stand behind replacing it ect.
