Need favor from fellow 96+ e36 owners :)

[cabezzzdb8]

So my DD is a 93 325i as you know early e36's sadly did not come with sidemarkers.

Ive looked everywere on the net for a 96+ sidemarker template so I could retrofit them on my DD but no luck

If you guys/gals could provide pics and measurements of the sidemarker hole so that the early e36 folk could do this it would be awesome and very much apreciated :buttrock

Thanks you all for looking, will do a detailed DIY once I get all the measurements so everyone can benefit :)

There are 2 version of the side markers, they face-lifted them again in 97. I can measure mine at lunch.

I have the orange side markers off a 95 325is if you need them. Let me know.

[cabezzzdb8]

Im looking for the later version but if we can have the measurements for both even better, thanks

[ducky328i]

tell me what dimensions you're looking for in particular? the physical size of the hole, i'm sure, but what dimensions would you like to find the location? i can give you the dimesion from the back and bottom of the fender (since they are the straightest and therefore easiest edges to measure from) to one corner of the hole, and from there you can scribe an outline of the hole using the dimensions of the hole itself to cut by. does that sound good? i kinda made the process up as i typed the message...:rofl...if that'll work i'll run out to the garage and get you numbers.

Thanks man, just what im looking for, need the measurements for the hole as well a a pic of it so I can see what it looks like, also the measurement for placement from the side moulding and fender well,thanks again
