the center of the marker should be where the top of the fender and the very end of the molding meet.

i don't know how more specific i can get...

install the sidemarkers in a sheet of cardboard... take a ruler and line up the intersection of the top of the fender and the end of the molding, use the cardboard as a template and trace the cutout onto the fender, cut out with metal nibblers/dremel. go slowly because you can always take off more material, but if you make the hole too big there is no turning back.

if these instructions don't do it for you, you should have somebody else install them.

Too bad we didn't get the usual smartass that says..."Put 'em where you want."
