Do it yourself dude....

Im not trying to brag but ive done about 6+ side marker installs on cars and its the easiest **** ever. You can get fenders with pre cut out holes but they are pricey.


All you need is templates, blue tape, dremel w/ carbon discs, spade connectors, wire, and wire splices.

i went to a body shop and they were charging me 100 bucks to cut the holes and wire them for me..so i said **** that and i did them myself and they turned out pretty good..just be patient and you will do fine..

all u do is get a drill and drill the hole big enough for the wires to go in and 2 more little holes to screw in the markers then its wireing afterwards only thing u can mess up on making side holes is making it slanted
