Got my clear side markers... Now what?

[eMpTy]

Anyone help me with this mod? I know 90civicRider has clear side markers. So I have a few questions:
1.) What is the best mounting location for these (the side markers I got have a 1.75" mounting depth, are there any clearance issues I need to know about?
2.) How do you go about cutting the mounting holes? I was thinking of using a nibbler tool to rough out the shape and then use my dremel to grind the edges to the required size...

Any thoughts are appreciated...

I don't know how to go about cutting the holes, I want to put some on mine. There's a guy around here w/ a car the same color as Dropshops' up there on top. He's got some, they look nice. Except they're amber.

I used a dremel to cut the holes....tape up the area w/ masking tape to avoid chipping and allow you to draw the area to cut....

What kind of bit did you use in the dremel?

There are NO clearance issues!! there is so much room back there it's not even funny.

Anyway i used this HUGE ass drill that was like the same size as me. It had a really sharp carbite bit or sumthing on it.
But yes a dremal works really good. Just make sure you dont push to hard or you will have a circular dent around your sidemarker.
