Got them from rock auto. They're for a Mazda Tribute.

 

[jeffietoon]

Thanks man...did they pop right in or did u have to mod anything?

Well, my car is a 2002 and didn't come with sidemarkers. I traced the hole in the fender from a junked protege that had them stock and measured where the holes were and cut holes for them in my fenders.

But if your car already has side markers, yeah they'll pop in no problem haha.

Yeah mine does my wife's doesn't, I love the look of your car it's so clean! Thumbs up

hey bro this is kind of a thread jack but hope you don't mind. I was wondering how close your exhaust sits to your rear lateral support links? do you hear it rattle or do you still have room?

No worries. With the stock ES muffler it was fine. I recently installed the MSP axle back like what you have and it definitely rattles on the lateral links. It's just about touching them haha.

This thread needs some new pics.

Replaced a shock yesterday. Feels so much better with all 4 working properly.

Ordering motor mounts and exhaust hangers soon. Got some more wheels on the way.

Bit of an update. Just collecting parts this winter.

Got some wheels, AWR front and rear mounts (installed the front so far), CS exhaust hangers, and OEM side skirts most recently.

You got skirts now? Lol mine are sitting in my house right now. How'd you go about installing those? I'm skeptical of drilling holes in the bottom of the car

 

[stivine6]

The side skirts made a huge difference, looking super clean!

Do you have any rust issues?
