How were you able to splice the wires? You could get to them w/out taking out the bumper?? Also, did you jack your car up? I can't seem to remove the screws or clips of the splash guard because there's so little space between the splash guard and the tire.

Good advice. Exactly what "correct" phillip srew driver are you talking about?

I didn't have to remove my bumper when replacing the side marker as well. I had to use "special" screwdriver, which is like an offset screwdriver. You can't really get to the top screw on the passenger side without using this special screwdriver. At least not for me. I didn't want to remove the bumper since I am afraid I can't align it back correctly.

It took about 30min for the whole job.

Now if someone can figure out how to block/strip the orange lens in the headlight

Sounds hopeful. Do you have a picture of this "special" screwdriver?
