Mabett Side marker Lights

[Mdmac]

Hello, I have a BRAND NEW set of the Mabett Side Marker Lights that have never been installed I want to sell. I want $50 plus shipping. I decided to make my own. Let me know if you are interested and we can work out the details. Will accept Venmo. Thank You and will post properly in the Marketplace Forum with pictures. Sorry about my mistake

RE: Make your own side/turn signal lights = I did and love the result. Only thing I might do differently is pull the source for the side markers from the passenger side and run a wire to the driver's side.

The driver's side light assembly is very difficult to get off without scarring the paint whereas unlike the driver's side, you can get to the passenger side easily through the fender liner to compress the tab that holds the assembly in place. Run wire under a cross member.

What you need is a pry tool and maybe a micro fiber tool behind it to prevent scratches. It’s all easy Peezy that way, that’s how I did it.

Here you go. I bought some Amber lights from Amazon and tied them into the turn signal so they will flash .

Hello, If you like them and want to make your own I have some of those round amber lights left and would ship you a set free to install. It's very easy. Just a hot and ground. Just give me your address and I will send them to you.

To start I want to say I love what you made for your mav, they’re seriously awesome and I’m very impressed. I have the mabett side markers and I am very satisfied with them. I definitely want to use the empty space they have with something like what you made for yourself. When I have time I think I’m going to occupy that dead space in the mabett side markers with an amber running light exactly like what you made. Again, seriously good job!

Hi - I attached some photos. I did a complete write up in the thread related to side marker lights. Key points:
-No need to remove the emblem to drill the 3/4" hole. Use a sharp paddle bit.
-Test the LED's using a 9v. batter as you go to detect any wiring/connection issues.
-The lens is made by gadcad3D. He is an etsy seller.
-Wait to drill the hole until you have the lens because you must make a templete to locate the hole using the indent in the back side of the lens.
-I used 3M 1/4" auto grade emblem tape to secure the lenses. I cut the tape at my workbench using a sharp razor and made corners abut. So far, no moisture issues.
-Use auto grade fabric electrical tape, NOT the shiney stuff.
-It takes about 15' total of 3 wire 24 guage stranded wire cable to do both sides. No need for heavy wire.
