Talking TOTAL newbie question about side markers

how do you change the side markers for an 06 Z. i got the clear ones and im just too damn lazy to figure it out. this is a total newbie question, but i figured i could just ask someone and take the heat for it later

you dont need to take off the wheels. it'll be easier to take off the bumper, but it's necessary, you can reach in under the fender liner as quicksilver said.

I did mine and i can tell you it's alot easier to take the bumper off! You can get the driver's side swapped without a problem but the passanger is the PITA!!!
