Some chump said he just glued his in? BUt I'm not sure about that, how did he get the other ones out? I would love to know how to change them as well, cuz I have had mine for a month now, but don't want to take off the bumper, it sound like it is a *****....! And I'm not to handy with cars...and don't have a jack or anything to lift the car....!

You might want to PM dsmal. He's in Hawaii (you can find his posts in the Pacific forum). He's done sidemarker work on quite a few Z's on Oahu, and he can probably give you the best advise. I hope this helps.

after taking the plastin in the wheel wells out, the driver side one is easy. for the passenger side one i had a friend hold the bumper out a bit, and used a really small wrench with a screw driver bit held into it and just worked the screws out slowly, and then back in slowly. it's probably just easier to take the damn bumper off.

Ok, so finished up the side marker swap... The driver's side took ten minutes as many others have said.... However, the passenger side was a biatch... I should have just taken the DAMN BUMPER off from the get go, but... I wasted a couple hours trying to stick my damn hand under there while scratching up my darn arm. But, I didn't use a jack, and I just took off the passenger half of the bumper...
Thanks for the replies though guys...
Oh yea, I've seen ur DB Z at school (pretty sweet imo)... I drive ONE of the 2 or 3 CS Z's at our school...
