I couldn't wait anymore and went home on my lunch break and installed my LED sidemarkers from Trinity, no codes and they look great. My only issue is that on the one side it seems to sit kinda loose I can wiggle it a little, has anyone else experienced this with theres?

I wonder if this is because the LED markers are missing the rubber gasket that the oem have?

One of mine is minimally loose, but it isn't enough to bother me much. Its definitely not going anywhere, and the look is much better than oem.
It may help if you do what I did. I taped the wires down to the inside of the fender for added support.

Mine weren't loose, but seemed to fit proud, so I took them out then put them back in but pushed them in tight like shadezeRO, here's how they looked.
There in there nice an tight now, which is How it should always be
