I've been searching but i couldnt find anything in regards to my exact question about the clear front side marker lenses. I wanna put these on my car and I was planning on having the dealership put them on for me but they told me that in order to do this, the front fender must come off in order to do so, and to then put the fender back on, may take some time thus leading to about 2 hours or so of labor plus the cost of the parts. Is this true or am I being ripped off? Or is it easy enough that I could do it myself? And if so how exactly is it done? Thanks in advance.

ps they're called "clear corners" for future reference.. if you search that it bring up more acurate results..

also it IS really easy... i did mine in 20 minutes and half of it i didnt know what i was doing lol so if you know what you're doing it'll be less time.. VERY EASY dont sweat it.

Never let a dealer do a custom mod, not only will you pay more, but you will probably be their first. Its' best to find a local custom body shop if you don't DIY.
