The fronts actually fit pretty well. Going to give it another shot on the rears when it gets warmer but I'm not sure how I'm going to be able to adjust the right to left gap since I don't recall there being much if any play.
Mine fit great, and look fantastic compared to OEM ones. I don't regret a thing.. really changed the look of my ride. Aftermarket always incurs some level of "fitting" depending on your expectations.
I jumped on these without doing due diligence. After seeing the horrible fitment issues, they've been sitting in a box unused since I bought them a couple of years ago.
I eventually got all four to clip in and while not flush, they are never going to be flush because of the way they are built. I still love the look at night so sticking with them.
Isn't the tape going to make them stick out further?
I personally didn't have to use tape. I was able to reach in from behind using a screwdriver and pull the clips towards the car so they finally clipped in.
I ended up using a small screwdriver and put it in the middle of the clip and pushed towards the side of the clip which you depress to remove and all 3 clips finally clipped in.
Still not 100% happy with how they are a bit off-center, there's a gap on only one side. They do look good when on though.
I don’t know about you guys, but I paid a lot of money for my car. —- this dog don’t hunt!

Yes totally unacceptable especially for $500.00.
The problem is all in the clips. They are not properly centered and incorrectly shaped, they do not lock in position and when they do the light is not centered. Would need to cut the clips off flush and use 3M tape.
Yikes, that's bad! I have a set of the Oracle ghosted markers, but they aren't as bad as yours. They don't sit perfectly flush, but they also don't stick out far enough to bother me. Hope you can get them seated better.
That sucks. Me, I purchased the other ones ( that made my Corvette turn into a pumpkin after the lights were on for a period of time !) TPMS did not report to BCM when the lights were on.
******* BTW, has anyone found a way of correcting this problem with the side marker lights from "J W Motorsports LLC " ********
Good luck with your fitment !!

Mine fit so poorly that one of the front ones popped out on the first drive and rubbed against the front tire wearing a big rub spot in the brand new Oracle light. I contacted Oracle immediately who told me that their warranty was only on the electrical and that they didn't sell these lights individually. The politely informed me that I could buy a whole new set from them - for another $500. I wound up having to fight them and did a credit card charge back. They EVENTUALLY relented and didn't fight the charge back but not before I was fairly well torked at them. Their quality control is crap and these lights they're reselling fit like garbage. I'll never do business with them again. Their reputation is in the toilet as far as I'm concerned.
I just reached out to Oracle and they told me I'm the first one with these problems.
They are absolutely - FLAT OUT LYING. I had a battle royale with them over this very same issue a few months back. Loop in the owners - that Brittany or whatever her name is who is the "Customer Service Manager" just is not truthful at all.
They make them to fit all Corvettes, therein lies a problem. Items on Corvettes are not all the same, they have to try and find a middle ground. Ask ACS about side skirts.. there can be up to 1/4 inch difference in width of glued on panel at bottom. I purchased the Z06 lighted carbon door plates.. they did not fit mine at all since those are all different as well. most parts unless tested on varying years etc. etc. will be fit for the Car they had on hand to design the part. Aftermarket always takes fitting if you want it perfect
