Clear side markers
I wanted to know if any one had experience installing JDM clear side markers and what is the best way to get them out and put the new ones in.

Simple, simple.
Take the tip of a knife, flat along the car and slide it under the front part of the sidemarker. Put a piece of tape along the side that contacts the paint, if your afraid of scratches. Not too much or the blade will be too thick.
The sidemarker itself has a little play to it, as it clips into a slot. Push the marker toward the front of the car, giving you a little more play to get the knife between safely from the "S2000" fender badge side. Just a little tension holding it, so no need to strain.
Disconnect the wiring harness by pulling the harness, not the wires - as they like to come out sometimes.
Click the new ones in and go. Remember the tapered part of the sidemarker faces rearward.
Make sure you switch to amber bulbs to satisfy the authorities.
This write-up actually took longer to type than to switch the side markers. Hehehehe.
