Yup, European models have them as standard.
Could post up a pic with measurements later if that helps
Or......
You could install 370Z side blinkers instead, which I find to be a cleaner solution

I have seen the 370Z blinker mod, the only thing that bugs me about it is that the 350z's never came with it stock. So although it might look clean, there is a bit of a cheese factor to me haha
Exact measurements would be super helpful, Bullet. Someone previously in this thread mentioned 15mm was the distance from bottom of the emblem to top of the blinker, maybe you can verify?

WOW! That's extremely helpful man! Thanks much!!!
One more thing, are the bulbs the same as the license plate bulbs? I know in the manual they're referred to as T10 size, but it's the same as a 194 bulb too. Thanks a lot Bullet!

nothing personal but I think you guys are smoking crack, the side marker looks **** and kills the clean look of the fender. I wish our australian spec didn't have the side markers 
If I was you guys I would replace the Z emblem with the one on 370z's.. So it will still look clean and have the functionality of a side marker.

I wish I could have mine without the additional sidemarker.
If I could drive over, I'd swap fenders straight away, haha

Well I just made up my template last night out of cardboard with the dimensions given! I'm gonna dig into the project this weekend probably. Going to get the holes taken care of, make sure the lenses and all fit, and then go from there. I'll figure out lighting afterward.

Yeah... I guess, I was looking for a low budget project... I found the harness in other thread though, I wonder if someone has done it since then.

So, I ordered the side lights from nismoraceshop.com, and they're back-ordered for 4-6 weeks, which is fine. I also ordered the wiring harness/sockets from passwordjdm.com, and they just arrived. This is what's pictured on their site:
The douchebags sent just the wiring pictured on the right, but no sockets as pictured on the left of the image.
Anyone know another source for the sockets? I don't really need to spend $20 for $0.50 worth of wiring.

^^ Yea I noticed that too when I was searching on Password:JDM's site for something that might work. In really small print somewhere on the page where you ordered that, it says "This is for the wire only, light sockets not included." That immediately turned me off and I went for a different solution.
My GF actually has a 2000 VW Passat, and I checked out the sidemarkers that come on her car. Well they hold a 194 (T10) bulb which is what the JDM 350Z markers use, but they don't have a real way of attaching to the lenses themselves, just like a rubber boot type thing. So I went ahead and ordered two sockets from RockAuto.com. They actually come all as a kit, with the socket, wire, and lens for like $5.00. Here is the piece I ordered:
http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/moreinfo.php?pk=707013
They're also the same markers used for Jettas and Golfs / GTIs. I just tossed the sidemarkers and used the light socket assembly and wire. And they've worked great so far! I realized I never took pictures of mine installed, so I will get some soon and upload them when I get a chance!

Yeah I saw your pictures but, didnt want to bother you with exact measurements. I guess i will just have to eyeball it also unless someone in any country besides the US can chime in?
Kwame: luckily it seems i got the factory harness from the member i bought it from, unfortunately it will seem that i have to splice into it anyway and not use the oem plug.
To me 1cm does not look right as
Looks a little more to me

I'd really like to do this.
Does anyone know if these (on JDM models):
1) Blink "together" with the turn signals?
2) Blink "opposite" with the turn signals?
3) Are solid (remain on with the driving lights)?
Thanks!
