Default ​​​​​​​A new type side repeater for 958.1

Long ago, I bought a cheap as* side repeater for my CS.
I paid roughly $20 (including shipping) for this, and have been regretting doing so.
I got what I have paid for.

It was a flat ugly repeater with the worst visibility you could ever imagine.
It has a T10 bulb free polarity canbus connector so it worked right away (come to think about it, it was a-okay thing considering the price).

The water tight cover wouldn't fit on the wiring hole due to the extended wires, and if I force close it, the wires would bend and push the LED PCB outward exposing the ugly red and black wires visible through the transparent cover.




I always had 'I'm going to get a new, a better repeater if there is any' thought.
And... as always while scavenging what accessories I could get for my good ol' 958, I stumbled across this awesome new repeater.
Costs about USD120, looked cool, and the LED pattern looked OEM.
Without hesitation, I bought it.
Waited for two weeks and as soon as it arrived at my doorstep, I installed this beautiful thing on my CS.




Lovely!

Lovely!
I found a set on Amazon it’s LED it looks like the one you have only mine is tinted. It has a parking led and amber blinker. You have to tap into the power wire for both to work.

That looks AWESOME!
But tapping into the original wiring is one thing I am very afraid to do.
Ill just have to satisfy at this level…
