Re: Rear side marker lights
They are all the same from what I've seen. Damn hard to find good ones at the JY. Check your bulbs and wires. They do tend to break the connectors to the bulb too. One of mine broke. It was hard to tell with all that bulb grease in there. Once I cleaned it out I found the broken electrical connector. No way to fix that other than finding another in good shape at the JY and put it on.
keep'em flying!

Re: Rear side marker lights
Of course, the other option for about 50 bucks, I can make you an LED set.... If you have some markers to send me.... I might have a full set that I can convert.... $75 for those.
Best part is, they are sealed, so no more problems with water/dirt, and they can take abuse. My set is still holding up, and since I switched to silicone from epoxy on the newer builds, I have had no issues with them. Mine however are still epoxyed... But Ryan's are done with silicone, he had issues with the set I built him, switched to that and working fine so I last heard.
I have spare lamps, but no bulb holders. Those often corrode. The LED ones I build just get either wired directly to the existing wires (soldered and heatshrinked) or just latch locked, along with sealant to keep moisture out. I can make direct plug in adapters, but they are a pain in the ass to make, so they add to the cost... And your bulb holders have to be in good shape to use those...
Let me know.

Re: Rear side marker lights
The side marker lamp holders were notorious for corroding and going bad. New bulbs won't fix it, as the entire contact pads are usually gone. You can often find aftermarket replacements here and there, I think NAPA was even selling some. But you have to clip the wiring, then put your new holder in, and I usually recommend soldering then heat shrink/sealing the joints to keep moisture out.
