I have the long oval side markers w Amber LEDs that I'm trying to install I have the fenders taped and measured now I gotta find the template or trace it but I would radther not trace the side marker for the cut.
I'm not understanding what you need if they are going in the stock position. If your putting it in a different position, and filling in the bumper cover. You already have a template you can take from before filling the holes.

No it's actually going onto the actual fender I have these
The problem the op has is that it is a stamped recess from the factory. So there's a lot more than just cutting a hole. It all you cut is a hole you'll see the white backing and everything. This is beyond what most people have for tools and knowledge too do right.
If this is what his trying to accomplish, then it's not really a hard job. They make aftermarket markers, that I have installed on other vehicles before. The light itself, will not be recessed like the factory, but will fit flush against the body. You'll have to drill a hole in the body, large enough to run the wiring (2 wires) & then install 2 small sheet metal screws, that hold the light in place. The measurements are the most important part, because you want to make sure they are in the same spot, on both sides of the car
Thanks guys appreciate the help with the measurement and input I'll post some pics when I get started on the car. Also the markers I'm using are the European 2006 and up on my 02.
Oops, just seen Mandy's link to my pics from six years ago. Doh.
WIL44 hope you are well! How's the SC? And yes thanks for giving me the location specs, I was able to install my side repeaters on the SC. Happy New Year!

Hi Mandy
Happy New Year to you and your family too.
I can't believe it was six years ago, I first gave you those dims, where does the time go???
All good here thanks, SC has been covered up on the driveway since November, hopefully it will re-emerge around March depending on our weather.
Take care
