Mabett side marker lights turn signals

[CurtisB]

Even though I like the animated lights. I feel that Mabett does not have their act together yet. Cheap pricing poor quality won't cut it for me.
I feel, having either fender or mirror mounted signal markers, is a nice safety feature. I've had them on a few of my vehicles. More than likely I will go with the ones pictured below.

Not as fancy. Stay safe.

Conservatively safe.

I might go this route as well.

I plan to leave the center indentation black, as well as the XLT strip area. Then ptm the rest.

I may put chrome or stay with the stainless look on the indented part.
Like I have now.

Yes, I went with the kit and I like it. I'm sorry but I do not have a recommendation for a LED bulb but I'm sure there is a discussion about it in this club. Best of luck

In stock again! Just ordered. More expensive than I thought; better be worth it!

Hello, I have purchased a set and after 2 weeks the passenger side is full of condensation. It is a problem as others on the Forum have mentioned. Hope you have better luck. Tried to contact Mabett but had to leave a voicemail

For the true DIY crowd and those who like an OEM look, I attached detailed guidance based on my custom side marker and turn indicator installation. 3 images included.

Is there a lens, or does the center naturally glow evenly like that?

Thank you I like the small round light.
Did you happen to leave a link of where you bought that round light light at??

RE: Link for 3 wire lights = unfortunately the url was too long so you must do a search either on Amazon or the company name, True Mods, they have a website.

What I like about these lights is first, they are two way and second, they have an SAE rating. The turn signal function is brighter than the side marker function.

Use this for the search: TRUE MODS 2pc 3/4" Inch Round Amber Trailer 12V LED Marker Light.

My parts info is in the Word text document that must be downloaded, it won't display on the forum.

If you are unable to open the Word doc, then the info you might need is that an ordinary 3/4" wood paddle bit will drill a perfect hole. Drill a pilot hold first. The rubber grommet that comes with the LED light holds it firmly in place.

Feel free to contact me back if you have any Q's.

No worries, you will.

I saw the Mabetts. Thought they looked cheap and the wrong color. Did these myself. twelve bucks, look great when on, right color and blacked out when not on.

Hi and sorry that the parts list requires downloading the Word doc. Lens:

https://www.etsy.com/shop/GadCad3D

On the site, scroll down and you will see the image of the lenses. They are well done.

My write up has some tips for the process. Of note, it does not require removing the emblem to drill the 3/4" hole but, using the lens, you should make a template to locate the hole.
