Default LED Sidemarkers

Found (bought) a set of OEM LED sidemarkers from a FB Cayman Group member who lives in the same area. Install took about 5 min each side after watching a couple of YouTube videos.

Looks great! I also have these on the way. I saw a video where they said the wires are really short and a challenge when you go to plug it back in. Did you have that issue?

Thanks

On my '15 CS, the driver's side wiring was fairly long - no fuss in connecting. The passenger side wiring was short -- like in some of the videos. It took a little bit of creative finger/hand positioning to get the plugs to connect.
