@@ArmenianCwalk identified the cables like the video showed (mine was the same colour). Used a wire stripper to expose a bit of cable, soldered the cable from the turn signal to it and then wrapped it in heat shrink and elec tape after. You could also buy splice connectors but I found them to be a bit annoying personally.
I ordered my front splitter from ultimate motor sports before and I totally recommend getting your honda civic parts from them. Owner was super respectful and humble🤝
I’ve been an electrician for 25+ years. Electrical tape does NOT make it water proof. It sure helps, but don’t think just because some wires have electrical tape that it’s water proof. Either way this helped. Thank you so much.
I just switched out one of my markers and followed everything to the T and now the sequential turn signal isn't working. It did beforehand when I tested it right before I put on the splitter connector piece
I got this for my hatchback on eBay about a week ago(it was cheaper) but the guide was step by step very helpful for installation been watching the vids to help me with my hatchback keep it up dude 🫡
Hey Chris i just installed these on my FK7 and the fitment seems a little different than the OEM orange ones. They seem to stick out slightly from the housing. Did you find that to be the case?
Good video and light looks good but you're far better off using a decent wire stripper that can strip in line, solder and heat shrink although you might as well cut the wire, but it's not hard to get a better finish than that wiring that's begging to short eventually and could fry lots of very expensive can bus parts. Each to their own but I can't stand taps except fuse taps lol im too OCD. Love that blue hope I can find my type r in colour and price 😊
Are the white markers too bright or do the just glow? I want to get rid of the orange markers but I don't necessarily want super bright white LEDs shining out the side of the car either.
Hey Chris, does adding the side markers and escpecially splicing the wires, void your warranty? I really want to do it my car but scared that happening. Please let me know. Love you vids as always.
One of my first videos but i ended up not splicing the wires with the turn signals because i was scared. I'll do another video with splicing the wires in the future for the fk7!

They look amazing man, could you make a video on how to do it for the hatchback. I assume you want to also add them to the hatchback sport. That would be very helpful because I don't feel confident splicing the wires. I don't want to mess it up

These side markers take on water ,my driver's side full of water ,got them to send me another set and had them professional intalled same thing take on water 💧 there crap , rains no good , i got pics and i can send a video
Giveaway winners will be announced on the next video!
Will these work with a 9th gen sport hatch that doesn’t have those same led cables
Probably the best installation guide available for these lights. Took me 2 mins to do it! You make ChrisFix proud
how did you tap into the turn signal cables? do you have to splice it open first?

Chris! This was probably the most detailed video on how to install these SideMarkers! Thank you so much!
I looked through several videos to try to figure out how to do this install myself and yours was by far the best - thank you!
Hey Chris you should do a video of how to upgrade the speakers/sound system on the sport hatchback
I hope TH-cam is paying him a decent amount lol

It’s weird. My turn signal lights from lasfit are not synced with the rest of the car. I have a slight delay. Anyone have input on this??
I just got the same markers and when I plugged in the side marker it doesn't turn on white but the yellow part turns on did I do something wrong?
Hey bro I have the same problem
Can you fix it?
I figured out the problem I blew the fuse
@@gilbertomejiajr1706 you change the fusil?
Fuse
thanks for the tutorial. just installed mine today
Just got my side markers in. did a quick search and your vid popped up. thanks chris, for making it. Helped a bunch.
Orange side markers always gotta go. Was my first mod when I got my FK7 :)
Awesome video brother!
Yessir! Also my first on my fk7 😀
I try and I think my Fuse is gone .can you help me to show the Fuse to change ?
wait, how do you tap into the turn signal cables? i saw you installed the blue plastic thing, but did you splice open the cables first?
I just switched out one of my markers and followed everything to the T and now the sequential turn signal isn't working. It did beforehand when I tested it right before I put on the splitter connector piece
Does the type r have a different wiring harness for the lights? I got like 4 different plugs on my car
Great install vid, only thing I'll say is to unplug the marker from the coupler before removing the bulb from it. Way easier.
UK version has clear lenses but ive changed mine to smoked anyway

I'm probably one of the very few that actually love the orange side markers on the fk8 😅
What happened to your FK7"s spoiler?
It was getting loose so he took it off and put the duck tail on
Are there any blue side markers out there for the Civic Hatch or blue translucent paint to tint the stock side markers?
Hey Chris i just installed these on my FK7 and the fitment seems a little different than the OEM orange ones. They seem to stick out slightly from the housing. Did you find that to be the case?
Do you plan on using hondata or ktuner, heard that hondata w/ the type R is the way to go
Probably hondata one day.
Do they have smoke color for this? I just search for this and your channel came of also new to this channel, I got sport hatchback will this fit?
Hey chris can you do it again with your sport hatch😁 thank you😁
Absolutely!

i have them. they’re not too bright
How long did it take you to install
its kinda funny, in US they get rid of orange side markers, but in Indonesia, we change the clear one, with orange
How do you know what color to use?
Typeeeeearrrr
Can this be used on the Hatch GT? (Not sure if this model is in the US but it's the all-extra 1.5L)
It should. They’re all the same size for the coupe, hatch models.
Did you cut the green wire or no ?
Love how it looks!! Is there a Front Gap on the front of the marker, like on the SUMA Performance Side Markers?
Do you think i can just put the wire into the hole and plugging it back in, instead of splice it
Did it work? I did that with my rear reflectors and it worked i was wonder if i could to the same with these and prevent to splice them
chris is the application of the sequential lights the same with a civic hatcback sport ?
Yes but headlight wire layout is different since sport uses halogens
This is what I needed to know to install s2k side markers with that style of plug. Didn't know the bulb itself comes out. 👍
Hey Chris, does adding the side markers and escpecially splicing the wires, void your warranty? I really want to do it my car but scared that happening. Please let me know. Love you vids as always.
Most likely no, but I would call your dealer to double check.
Looking good Chris! Love the sequential side markers although I'm not confident splicing the wires
he says its easy
I dont think we need to strip the wire before connecting them together because the metal bridge cut them anyways
Hey Chris have you done it on the fk7 ?
One of my first videos but i ended up not splicing the wires with the turn signals because i was scared. I'll do another video with splicing the wires in the future for the fk7!

@@chris_timefk8 Sounds good I look forward to it.
How do I add this to my insurance?
Hey Chris… thanks bud
Very cool!
Thx bro done my kids today
Does this fit on a fc1?
Yes

Yes!
You don't need to strip any wires with that splice connector. Just stick it in the same slot and clamp it.
lookin nice!
Loki wished u explained the splice part better
Hi are you a Filipino
My man with cloth scissors lol 😂
You might want to put a disclaimer to check our local laws. White side markers aren't legal everywhere
Don't need to take out any screws my guy
Damn this guy does everything but drive his car?
Comical what these companies will charge for "branded" chinese parts. These are on ebay for literally $36!!!!
Not just you. The factory orange is hideous. Like these alot

First?!?!?

Why does when buying online only include one connector? Should I buy another connector?
chris.. the signal wiring socket is the middle one for the factory led headlight?
The turn signal wires on each side are both shown on the video my guy.
