Vette Lights is running a group buy on their ghosted side markers, check them out. I have Oracles (from Vette Lights) and am very happy with them. Some people say they don’t fit flush, they don’t but either do the OEM. I compared them to the OEM & they are identical.

+1 for Vette Lights. The ghosted side markers look really good. Only issue is they're not flush like previously mentioned.

I have Oracles as well, but grabbed a set of the Vette Lights sale. For $80 I couldn't pass it up.

I have the Oracles in black with the visible LED strip on a Silver 2007 coupe and love them. They look incredible and get LOTS of compliments on them. I bought these on e-bay but the seller was Oracle. These lights do not sit flush as many have said but neither do the factory marker lights.

The only issue I have had is that the front lenses have shown some moisture inside. Contacted Oracle and have a RMA number. If this Coronavirus quarantine ever gets lifted, I can get my car and return the front lenses for repair/replacement.

I'd also like to know where these are offered for $80. At that price, i'd order another set as backups.

I had the same issue with one of mine and had to ship it back to them. They had it back to me really quick.

I purchased the Oracle to match my body color, Blade Silver, that are ghosted. I have mixed feelings after the install. The LEDs are awesome, the fit is not quite as good as OEM, or maybe I should say different. My only real reservation is choosing the body clover over black. All in all they are a quality product.

I planned on ordering the clear and paint them myself but I just couldn’t pass this deal up on black ones . I guess I’ll have to see how I like them.

Do NOT buy the Oracles!!! Overpriced junk with non existent customer service. They refused to send me a replacement for this because I purchased them from a vendor that is now out of business (Maryland Speed). In the pictures you see that the ps marker doesn’t fully light up compared to ds which is fully lit. Provided them with original receipt, original box and pictures. My car is a show car with 8000 miles. Markers might have 10 hours run time. Complete joke of a company.
