side marker questions

I was wondering if anyone has heard of a company called Cuzo, and if their products are any good and how far out would they sit? I am considering getting these side markers Cuzo for my Clover Green 2001 'Vic. Also, when drilling the holes for the back to go through (single hole mount) tape to protect the paint? Any other advise is welcome .

no man, clear side markers and my cleared headlights, if the po-pos have anything to say like "they can't see that your turning because you have no amber" then I have the 'out' with side markers. Are factory Golfs rice?

you're dumb. sidemarkers are not just cosmetics.. its a safety feature too. so people in your blind spot will notice that you're turning.

also, you'd usually stick that on you're quarter panels. somewhere around 1" from the body line, and the door edge.

I'm pretty sure if your in someones blind spot most likely they could see your tail lights to!! and dun say nothing like what if your tail light is out cause what if the side marker is out to!!!!! And if it was really needed then they would put it on most cars as a standard safety feature then!!!

oh AND to help you out cause no one is helpin they're just discussin nonsense... those side markers are cool... not too big either.. the slk ones are nice i duno if youve seen them? they're kinda thin and long but really bright... the tape around the hole is used so that yea the paint doesnt chip or crack off.. some might ne way but the light itself should cover it up.. if you follow the DIY it should come out fine tho.

Haha. Damn straight.

Those sidemarkers look pretty good. I personally like the little rubber piece on the back of it. As for the installation itself, these two DIYs are the ones I used when I put mine on.

01CivicEx's DIY

Mex's DIY

And I have some pics and tips on my semi-DIY

man go ahead and get sidemarkers if you like them, I personally like them. I have only heard of cuzo lighting, and from past expeirence, they are really good lighting. Find some better side markers that are of higher quality though, but go ahead and do it.

What size of a bulb is in those markers from tornactive? To those who have done the DIY, did you use the nibblers or how'd you make your holes?
