What did you do to your 997 today?
#1306
I am planning on replacing the yellow side markers with the clear ones, soon. I should be able to do this by myself(without pro help) , right?
I tried to get the yellow one off yesterday, just to see if I could, and needless to say, I could not get that damn thing off. What am I doing wrong? Am I being too passive? I wasn't pulling on it hard, because the clear markers have not arrived yet.
Thanks guys.

It will pop out easily. I did mine couple of weeks ago.
Passenger side came out using hands only. Driver side needed a little "help" to pop out.

Wait until you have the clear markers. The metal spring clips can get bent when you pull them out and may not fit correctly without some tweaking.
To remove them, simply push them towards the back of the vehicle and then pull them out.

I see many incorrect directions for removing the side markers, which basically say to pry it out from the end closest to the wheel, which ends up bending the spring clip. The correct way is to slide the entire marker towards the wheel, then lift up from the front end of the marker. Sliding back compresses the spring clip and unhooks the two front tabs on the marker, allowing it to clear as you lift up.
Easiest way is to grasp the front of the marker with 2-3 fingers, and in one motion pull towards the wheel and pry upwards by curling your fingers.

Picked mine up from the body shop. Had a detailer peel the old clear bra off the front and it took some paint with it off the bumper. Detailer covered it and I got it resprayed. Looks good now.

I don't fully trust those clear bra. I rather spray the front when it gets bad.
