I have a set of these for sale if anyone is interested, unused and still in box..

ordered them from ebay a couple of weeks back and now they have arrived, I've decided they are a little too bling for my liking.. so not goin to put them on.

they seem to be exactly the same as the ones above..

cost me £30 but will sell for £15 inc delivery to UK..

Does it come with rubber seals at the base? These seem to match the LCI tail turn signals better.

They do. The underside that rests on the car has a rubber material.

The modification required is to the light not the car. you have to file down the plastic on the housing of the light so ti sits flush on the car. Also the clip will not work I used industrial double sided tape to secure it

I have to disagree with the bimmian markers. I have them and went back to stock with the silver invisibulbs in them. The bimmian ones look like cheap all plastic construction with no rubber seal at the base which lets water in. Personally, the bimmian ones are a downgrade. :thumbsdown: Unless of course bimmian improved it since I got mine. These does look plastic, but at least it seem to have the rubber seals on them.
No rubber seal but the housing of the light is sealed well I have had it installed for over 6 months now and have had no issues. Just got around to posting in the forums I have been busy.

Yes they are the same size the fit issue was on the rear of the housing and the light not sitting flush on the car
