Best instructions I've seen. I changed mine according to this in a snap!

Could you PM me how much discount would it be and to ship them to Jacksonville. Also do you have a picture of the clips in the wheel wells.

How much discount can I get? I am planning ordering a pair of clear side markers and LED bulbs.

One caveat, pick a warm day to do the remove and install. The plastic is less flexible when it's cold and is likely to break.


i speak from experience.

Damn, I just noticed this was originally posted 5 1/2 years ago

You will break at least one the side lights when you remove them! Buy a spare pair and fit LEDs in them so you don't have to do this ever again. Perhaps some hair dryer heat will soften them a bit but didn't work for me.

Age plays a role too in this issue.

I just changed mine out a few weeks ago. I did the old push forward method. Tabs on both the amber ones were brittle. They both broke. I wasn't worried about it. But I will probably do it from the inside next time.

I've given up on ever removing my side markers again. Every time I try I always break one, even ones that were brand new from Honda only two years ago broke the last time I removed them. I'm committed to going through the fender liner from now on.

The link for instructions on Ricks page is broken. Does anyone have a copy of it anywhere?
