JDM amber siidemarkers

[civicHatch]

I just got jdm sidemarkers for my 88 dx and I already have the amber corners. Can anyone let me know how to put them in. I also recently got my hi-flow cat, custom 2 1/4" mandrel bent , and an Apexi N1 universal Muffler. It looks pretty bangin'. It exits out the pasanger side kicked to the side. Soon Im getting Yokahama AVS ES 100's on 14inch 91 CRX Si alloys and painting them black. My hatch is white and I proudly sport my fresh looking black bumpers and black steelies.

thanks

Side markers were actually pretty easy to put in. What I did was make a template using copper-clad fiberglass milled with a CNC router, although cardboard would do just fine... I used the template by lining it up with the leading edge of the door, and the top edge of the rubber side molding on the fender... I put regular masking tape over the area that I planned to cut, then traced the outline of the cutout area onto the masking tape. Then, I used my dremel tool with a cutting disc to cut the hole into the fender. Make sure to cut smaller than the outline, and if the hole ends up being too small, you can always grind it out a bit (using the cutting disc also). But if you make the hole too big, you're screwed. Just keep test-fitting the side markers and making small adjustments to the hole. Once the holes are cut to the right size, remove the masking tape, grind the edges of the holes just to get rid of any sharp edges and that's it. I haven't wired up mine yet, but it shouldn't be all that tough.

Good luck.

Here's a quick picture of the template that I made just to give you an idea... The red arrow is where I lined up the template with the door edge and the side molding... then, just flip the template over to do the other side of the car.
