1) Measure & mark fenders.
2) Mount on / to fenders.
3) Wire to positive & negative lead on OEM turnsignals.
4) Consume alcohol.
It's all rather straightforward, really.

You have to really measure your fender to find a centerpoint that is accurate. Otherwise they will be uneven on both sides. I decided where I wanted to install the sidemarker and then made a latex template from there so that it stayed in place and was even while I made my cut.
So your gonna want to get a dremel for that with a shitload of cut off wheels. And remember to start small and work your way out, better to cut out too little then too much. If your using honda sidemarkers, they are fat on the backside with a hook slot and clip that relies on a good cut to secure it to the fender with no gaps. And the rest? Like Dave said...

:chuckles: Just be sure you follow that order.
If step 4 is completed before step 1, you might not be happy with the results.h:

wiring side markers
i have some side markers and having a hard time wiring the wires. is the markers suppose to be on when i turn on the lights or the markers are only on when i turn on the turn signals? I try almost every combination so that the markers are on and blinking when i turn on the lights and using the turn signals. when the marker lights are on, i cannot signal. but when the marker lights is off, i can signal. any instruction on wiring? the markers are on a 94 acura integra gs-r.

Just pull out the ones used to connect to your amber corners, and splice those ones in. I think the clear corners have two bulbs, so you want to choose the bulbs that blink when you signal.
I don't think it is possible to have your markers blink as well as be on with the headlights unless there are two filaments in the bulb. I have mine wired so that they are my turn signals, rather than running lights.
