Default side marker mod... **edit: day shots included**

I went to a local sign/graphics company and got me a sheet of Avery metallic silver vinyl and then...

For the passenger side, turned the wheel outwards and removed (5) 20Torx screws to access the side marker. For the driver side, reached down through the engine bay and popped it out. Cut the vinyl to shape, and got it on. Need day pix, color matches quite well and light is very visible in the evening.
