    Are you going to have them so they are only on with the turnsignal? I saw a rolla that had them on constantly and it looked pretty ignorant. :(

    that kid wired them in to the daytime lamps but on like BMWs they are on all the time at night...

    I thinking about the ones from the mini S cause the S is the same and it wouldent look too big on the rolla...

    well, mines only has like 6 inches of wire, so i gotta add some to it...the wire on the sidemarker is 22gauge but homedepot didn't have any but he said 24gauge would work fine...im also thinkin about gettin those thing that you clamp onto the wire to splice into it instead of cuttin the wires
