I bought some front clear side markers (the ones on the bumper not in the headlights) and need to install them but it looks like i have to unbolt a couple things by the wheel well. Im not even sure if thats where im supposed to start. But im asking if someone can explain how to take off the OEM ones and install the new ones. I did a search on it but didnt find my answer. It doesnt seem hard at all.

But thanks for taking the time to explain in advance.
Thanks!

I think that is what your looking for.

You don't need to unbolt anything at all. All you have to do is get a flathead screwdriver and put it into the inner corner of each light and pop it out. You can put a rag against the corner where your going to apply pressure so that the screwdriver won't mess up the paint on your bumper. Be careful popping them back in. Don't apply to much pressure or you'll snap the little tab that holds the light in place.

You can also look behind the splash guard in the wheel well to see the clip everyone's talking about. There's a plastic clip on one end and the other end has that metal spring clip tab thingy. You're going to be depressing the metal tab enough that the other end an slip past the edge of the hole.

It's not a big deal, but if you're in a hurry, you'll munch it.

well im outside working the the ride and i have the OEM side markers off but now im trying to put the clear ones on but they arent going in like staying clipped on. I dont want to put to much pressure on it because i dont want to break it but what should i do?

I don't even use a tool to get mine off. I just shift the light far enough towards the metal spring clip thing and it pops out from the other side. Reverse order to put it back on.

if it is loose putting back in you can probably just bend the metal tab out a bit and it should fix it .
