you take out the fog light and reach through to the backside of side marker. I believe there are 2 10mm bolts holding it on.

if you need more search "side marker".

2 minutes? Did you have your 10 year old do the install. As always it's the driver side that was a pain cuz it's so tight with your hands up in there. It took 2 minutes to find the 10MM socket for the nut.
