the sidemarkers remove the same way the bumpermarkers remove. you push them toward the (front/rear cant remember it says in the manual) and pull them out easy as can be.

if you want amber sidemarkers you could get them that color off the s2000. I have thought about stealing the ones off my dads car :-P

i was going to start a thread about this but i am glad to see its already been asked. i had no idea how to go at these marker lights. sliding huh? hopefully its as easy as it sounds.
thanks for the help

I found instructions in the manual and on here, obviously. Both say to remove them in the same manner. The problems is that I still can't get them off. It doesn't matter how hard I push or which way I push. My clear covers already came so I'm not happy. My only solution right now is to go to Honda.

to be honest, i couldnt get mine off that way either.....i used a very small screwdriver and w/o scratching or even touching the paint, i pulled at the light, and you can see two small clips on the top...open them a little and there is a bigger, V shaped clip on the narrow end,you gotta disengage them. the two front (orange) ones were somewhat easy, the red backones werent as easy.
just gently play with them (haa haa) and figure it out....dont force it.

Thanks. I'll have to play with it a little tomorrow. :cool:

well when i was putting in my front turn signals....i *THINK* i felt the bumpermarker assembly on the inside...and it was a lot easier to push from inside. (you have to take the fenderlining and stick your hand in there...)
