I just ordered a set from Garm, I so hate those cheap-o stock side markers and think the smoked ones from MicroImage will look so sweet on my Black Sand Pearl HB!

I'll post pics once I get them on!

Cheers! M2

Can the white transparent plastic thing be removed from the housing and smoked?

Jerkratt · 02-05-2009, 09:11 AM

will do ill be picking them up sometime next week.. hours got cut at work so i dont have the money this week

Kioshi · 02-05-2009, 09:56 AM

yea i feel you. I barely got 20 hours this week, had 8 hours to begin with :(
Side markers is my budget mod i can afford as of now~

Jerkratt · 02-05-2009, 12:21 PM

well i see that the suv's have slightly fatter side markers then the normal cars.. so im going to go to the dealer and take mine out and size them... im going to measure the hole opening aswell and bring a ruler with me to the dealer so i can see if there will be a gap

Easier idea... pop out one of your side markers, hold a piece of paper on the side of your car, and trace the outline of the hole. It'll be easy to see if the BMW marker will cover it then.

i went there today and got some part numbers... im going to go back next week and have them give me one of each and compair them.. the 3 series does not fit correct...

Jerkratt · 02-05-2009, 06:43 PM

2 1/2" x 1" is the opening of the fender

What side marker of the SUVs did you compare? The X3 or the X5? Or even maybe the X6....

thanks for the sizes bro.

MadMax · 02-06-2009, 08:58 PM

OK, no advice then, huh? I was wondering if some silicon adhesive or sealant would be the way to go...thoughts?

By the way, I went outside now that is dark and this is when the side markers that Garm sells really shine! They are much brighter and noticeable than the stockers, and a heckuva look cooler looking! The blend in much better on my black hatchback, I'll take some pics over the weekend to show everyone.

This is a great mod, easy to do and not too expensive!

Cheers! M2

Just paint the stock ones with TAMIYA PS-31 SMOKE great results and very easy, still shine super bright at night and day had them on for two years and they look like they were done yesterday.

cali yaris · 02-07-2009, 01:53 AM

madmax, I would use a spot of silicone to get those to not move around.

kou, those look pretty good!
