Only pic I have for now .... but they look exactly like the OEM but has a T10 plug sticking out of the OEM hole ... I have over 50 kits sold and around 70 plug n play led sidemarkers sets sold..... You can check my feedback on here and on Ebay
Did you look at the second video on the first post of this thread ???

I did my markers, using the DIY kit. I botched the first one on the original marker. My knife went a bit too far, chipped the end, and the marker broke in half. I finished the marker, so that I could see what was entailed. Then I ordered a set from the Fiero store. Big difference. First of all, the original markers are VERY fragile. I broke a second one walking inside by accidentally bumping the marker into a trash can. The marker broke in half. The original markers take about 20 minutes each, and the cut must be angled sharply in. The Fiero Store markers take about 2 minutes each, and can simply be cut straight down.
The wires going to the plug are a bit long...and fragile. I had to re-solder one.
For anyone else, don't rush. Make gentle knife cuts so it doesn't slip and damage marker. Use the Fiero Store markers--you'll like the results better. Test and clean the sockets first. The centering may not seem to be a big deal during assembly, but a bit off is very obvious later. Mark the position of the insert before removing, and put back to same spot before gluing. This will ensure proper reassembly. Test the marker before screwing it in...and after.
I still can't figure how to upload pictures, but I put them in on the first warm day I got, and am pleased with the results.
These really are nice, and look modern and natural. I see there are markers with more LEDs, if you want to get ridiculous. I just wish I could include pictures. Mine look really good.

I am enjoying them...particularly once I get to go on another Fiero cruise. They look great at night. I went back and fixed the one that's angled a bit. Hadn't realized it was off untilI took the pic.
