Just the man I was looking for pics from! Did they come with a new rubber seal on the back of the lights too? And def no errors right? They do look decently bright as well, but like most LED's I do expect them to be a bit dimmer during the day.


BC, the bulb seal is definitely good as far as I can tell I do think there is a slight crack on the plastic of one marker letting moisture in (which is why one is keeping moisture in and the other is fine)

Cadesto, I see you have Continental tires. I have Continental extreme Contacts. Can't tell what you are running. Are you happy with the wear, ride and handling?

From the tread pattern that's what I thought. That is the same tire I have, just left off the DWS. Tire is Conti extreme contact DWS.

Just waiting to hear if Cadesto's came with new rubber seal for the back of the markers, after talking to a guy with the smoked MTS markers from Germany it doesn't look like its worth the extra wait time, his got some moisture in them after a few months he says.

So at this point I'll just get another set of smoked Depo markers and keep the chrome bulbs in there or I'll give the smoked LED units a try. Thanks all
