Looks like you have to cut wires and put them together. But that's just me. lol

Looks like you'll have to cut your existing wiring and find out which is +/- before tapping them in place.
It's also best you contact the seller you purchased them from. They should be able to offer you customer support The ![]() |

remove the bulb holder/bulb inside the side marker (twist & pull) remove the bulb from the holder (pull straight out) now watch this video (it'll show you how to use the t-tap/red clips connectors): http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...5273298635405# black wire should attach to the solid brown wire on side marker red wire should attach to blue/yellow or white/blue or not solid brown wire (color's are different on different cars) **might want to double check which wire is which with a multi-meter** slide new side marker back into slot in fender. Hope this helps you out ![]() -Alex |

Ok...so I just got finished intalling the exact same sidemarkers (got mine from EAS....with no instructions).
you don't need to worry about pulling out the white thingy that holds the bulb (stock), you just need to pull the thing out, then cut the existing wires....leaving as much wire as possible (they're pretty short from the factory). then just follow the red crimpy thingy instructions above. My problem is fitment. I have gaps on both sidemarkers. they don't fit flush with the car like the stock ones. I taped them up really well, but I'm a bit concerned about water. they look great...and they work, but if you look straight down from above the markers....I def have gaps....they're not huge...but they're there. Can you please tell me if your fitment is similar to mine!

+1 fitment on these things suck IMO. That's why I just tinted my stock sidemarkers. Good luck with install you should have gotten the PNP version so you wouldn't have to splice anything.
