Toyota Cav Sidemarkers

Has anyone installed these? I have a set, and I'm interested in other peoples' installations. Specifically, I'd like to know what kind of hole you made. Anyone out there have some help for me?

they mount in the toyota fenders. they have a specific hole patern to them . you can wire the lights to stay on all the time or only on when blinking. i didnt have to cut holes in my fendsers since they came with them in it.

TRD 901-Z - Not helpful. At all.

Ok, I figured the hole out. Pop the rubber gasket off the lamp. Trace the inside. Widen the top and bottom a bit (to make it easier to remove and install), but do not alter the two ends where the lamp attaches to the car body.

I put the after market kind on mine. I traced the gasket like you said and then just drilled the holes. They sell a stepped drill bit that starts at a 1/4" and goes up to a 1/2"
this way you just drill a small pilot hole and then switch to the stepped bit and it comes out perfect. Hope this helps you.






Semper Fi SAINT. May you rest in peace.

Just an update. Be careful. The gasket is a little large for use as a template on the end with the metal clip. You can see it's about 1/8"-1/4" too big.

I'm still debating on putting them on my NON Toyo fenders.
