They're most likely clipped in. Just push them out.

Edit* Actually, maybe a screw underneath holding the front bumper, sidemarker, and fender together.

It's not going to be hard.

This is so easy to take off that I am having second thoughts about putting on my clear sidemarkers once I get them.

Exactly my thoughts as well.... This takes less than 30 seconds to do ....both sides. I'm more concerned that if someone decides to take they'll just yank the whole harness with it .

Imma take the extra precaution and only swap in the clears when my car will not be parked in public unattended. Rather be safe than having to come on here and tell everyone I was only gone for ten minutes and my clears and led amber bulbs got jacked.

I never paid attention to the cleared out cars before until the discussions here. Saw a few cars with no amber whatsoever on my commute home.

Sorry for the spammy post, but they are definitely there.
If you didn't see them, it's because the owner took them off.

As stated many times, it's a technically illegal mod, that no normal PO would ever care about, unless you do a host of other illegal modifications to it.

FWIW, if I had a 5, the first thing I'd do is take off the orange reflector too lol

No. They weren't there. They were all removed.

Agreed - I personally don't like amber, except for front turn signals.

I'll replace side markers once replicas are made, or the OEM ones are more widely available at a lower price.

The ebay seller is offering me $200 shipped for the exhaust tips and side markers, but I'd have to just paypal him directly since ebay has no way to choose to combine the shipments. I'm kind of iffy on that. Part of me is even afraid the side markers won't fit properly for some reason.
