damn....mine fit perfect....

guys who are having a problem, go ahead and contact USR if you dont feel like toying with it and he will be happy to fix it for ya

 

yea, mine fit with no issues. all four are on there good, will require some force to get them off, will definitely cause paint damage if someone tries to steal them.

 

What's the best way to contact him swoosh? Pm or email?

 

^i would call him directly. he doesn't respond to emails very quickly.

some of our "holes" must be tighter than others...
I had the same issue on the rear for BOTH of my sets of lights.
Putting something like a napkin or something rubber BEHIND the clip is probably an excellent idea so it stays firmly in place once you pop it in.

 

just wanted to give everyone a heads up to check that their sidemarkers are still snug and tight.

mine were nice and tight when i first installed them, i was washing the car today and noticed both my front and rear on the passenger side were loose.

 

Thanks for that Wilz...I need to pop one out and show you guys what I cut with a razor blade to make them sit snugly...

 

^^^ I thought you did that on the old set and not the new one

 

I just ordered some and I actually like the hyper blink.

 

^^^ hahaha for the longest time i let my shit hyperblink coz i loved it....but that phase got over after 2 years

 

I had to cut it on both the old AND new set, Anil...only the rears though...the fronts popped right into place.

 

^^^ guess i need to check the rear sidemarkers when i get to my car this afternoon..

 

sounds like some people don't have the issue though, so maybe you'll be ok!? It was pretty obvious for me that it didn't "click" into place.

 

^^^ you are right....I just checked the video which i took for USR

you hear 2 clicks, one at 0.11 and the other one at 0.13

 

Went through the car wash yesterday and it pulled the light completely out and the tab that doesn't snap into place is hanging on by a thread. I tried the razor method Rockstar143 suggested but it didn't seem to work for me. I thinking for the mean time I am going to get some 3m double sided tape and replace some of the gasket on the side with the broken tab.
Has anyone contacted USR? I've been slammed and haven't had the time yet.

 

My front passenger is the worst one, it was hanging outside of the car today when I parked my car and walked around it!

 

My fronts clicked into place and were a pita to take out...the rear 2 were my only problem. If you create a groove with the razor, it should allow the clip to pop out when in place and hold it. At least on mine it did.

 

ya guys i'm having fitment issues with the front passanger..
I need a fix, its driving me crazy!

 

damn guys...mine popped right in.

i have a type-s, and had to dremel a notch for the rears, but i had already expected to do that.

 

ahh man i have a type s also i guess its just a hit or miss type of thing

 

^did you dremel a notch on the rear ones? thats a must.

the fronts should just pop in tho. not sure why you're having issues. try and see which part is not popping in right and dremel a little tab on the sidemarker so it has something to catch onto.

 

^^^ Aaron, i think the issue they are having is the sidemarkers are not "popping" in....they are kinda loose....

i think the electrical fitment (dremeling the electrical connector) is a given with the Type S connector....

 

So are people still having fitment issues? I want to get these but I also don't want to get stuck with some issue in fitment!

 

the "fitment issue" is really something that is very simple to address. And for the price he's charging for a switchback sidemarker, I would NOT let it stint your decision to pull the trigger. If you get stuck, PM me and I'll walk you through what I did to get it to pop into place.

 

Cool thanks man, I will def hit you up if I have that issue!

 

Sounds like a plan

 

Abdul...I have had ZERO issues with mine....I installed another set on Steve's car and no issues there either

 

^^^ This is true-love mine!

 

Well, I just placed the order! Looking forward to them and Anil, I will probably hit you up once I have them! Hoping I won't have that issue as well!!

 

 

could these just blink white?

 

^^^ you can make them blink....

buy these:

I know this is pretty old, but what did you end up doing? Your idea is exactly what I wanted for my Type S.

 

^my repeated requests went unnoticed so i just have the switchback USR's as is right out of the box.

white while running, when turn signal is applied the fronts blink amber and rears blink red.

i will, one day, go back and figure out a way to make the rears RED and blink RED.

 

^^ gotcha. If I figure out a way, I will let you know

 

What if you tap spliced the extra wire to the original marker wire like it says to keep it red all the time and then connected it to the turn signal?

And using this logic couldn't you just tap a stock side marker to the turn signal wire?

 

^hmm...I like where your head is at, ryan.

give it a shot and let me know! I only have these USR ones as of now, I sold my OEM ones.

 

When I finally pull the trigger on the USR ones I will tinker

 

Hmmmmmm so I been wanting to buy these for awhile but like a few people I want the rear to be red-red not white-red and I want the rears to blink also. :/ has anyone come up with a solution to this? got my switchbacks installed two days ago now I need my matching side markers to be complete with the switchbacks for all 6. Pulling the trigger once someone finds out how to make the rear stay red and blink red.

 

John Ebelp was the one that suggested that to me, tap your regular constant parking light power wire with the signal trip wire...it SHOULD make it red ON and then blink red too. The red led's are in there...obviously.
