Just a word of caution. Those side markers are not street legal. They have to reflect amber from a white light source such as the headlights from other vehicles.
Check with your local DMV if your state inforces this. In California these could get you a ticket pretty quick as example.

In California, if it's equipped it's got to work. Aftermarket or not.
You know those 18 wheelers with hundreds of clearence lamps? If one bulb is not working you can get a ticket. This may have changed because truckers were complaining about the LED lights and getting tickets for one LED being burned in a light that has 30 LEDs as example.
All lenses have to be stamped with a DOT number as well.

You are correct 81, I believe thats a DOT law, but I don't even have the lenses in my clearance lights due to really bad hail storm we had, thus as I told the cop I am exempt from having to have to have them (its an F250) unless I was a hot shot rig
