Side Bumper Reflectors? or Euro Side Markers? 

The Bumper reflectors on the side of the bumper. I would recommend not using a
screwdriver to pry.. Instead use a small phillips head and unscrew 6 screws and
reach up under and replace then from behind.. Pops right out.. 

I did mine Smoked, Smoked Turn Signal Lens, Smoked Dummy Panel, and Smoked Euro
Side Markers.

Well, I installed two out of the three :

1. Smoke Side Markers : A real bitch to install...  it is almost
impossible to remove the old side markers without breaking them (I broke
both).  Also, make sure to put some electrical tape or any type of
protection between the screwdriver and the paint when removing (braking)
them.  Do not forget to take the bulbs out of the old side markers and
put them in the new ones (Or better yet buy new bulbs).  The smoke side
markers look REALLY great.  They are "clear" (don't have that shitty
amber look).  I just hope my bulbs don't burn anytime soon, replacing
them should be fun...

2. Headlight lids : Very easy install.  Just follow the instructions
that came with it.  No real trick here.  Don't put too much glue (3/4 of
the tube should be enough) as it will run a little and you'll be stuck
scraping the excess (Why do you think they give you a scraper ???). 
Look great, nice choice...

Good luck with the side markers... happy drillin'

Nic.
