HDI? Take off the side markers?

**04QuattroTurbo** · 08-25-2008 01:55 PM

I've bought a can of VHT, I'm planning on lightly tinting my tails with it, once one of you guys sell me a set of stock tails. But, I figure, I will get some left over and I want to do my side markers, I need to know how to get them off of the car without screwing it up. Thanks in advance.

slide/push to one side (left/right), then pull straight out toward you on the opposite side...

They just pop out. There is a spring clip on one end push from one side and pull out. Then undo the connector the bulb will stay with the connector.

Jordan, sorry, I think I maybe a little retarded when it comes to this, but I just push it towards the front or the back of the car and then pull them out?

yes, you can install them in either direction it doesn't matter. whichever side it slides to (left or right) pull it straight out toward you on the opposite side.

Ah, I'll try that...thanks. I've been on this darkening kick lately...I think it will look cool when I'm done...or I'll have a mess...

Speaking of which, anyone has some sidemarkers for sale? I rather do a different set than my only set!

you will not mess up your side markers, don't worry about it. They are way to easy to do even with the model masters tint spray. Just mask the back of them off with painters tape. If you mess them up then just clean the paint off with paint thinner, re-sand with ~2000grit sand paper, rinse with plastic prep cleaner and try again. A little force might have to be used to get the bulb out of the housing FYI....just hold it at the base where the bulb plugs in.
