The ugly orange blinkers.
Are they called corners on the 5th gen?
I'm a 4th gen guy, trying to hook my brother up.

Yeah, the ugly orange corners on the front left and right of the car. And the matching ugly red ones in the rear. That what you mean? If so I made a Word document with pics out of the How-to when it was still working, I can email it to you if you want. Installation is a snap, it should take 10 minutes tops. The hardest and most time consuming part is sealing the clears with some clear silicone before installing them so they don't get condensation in them.

Also look in the owners manual. It tells you how to remove the markers

You need to reseal where the clear lens meets the back plastic piece. On mine the clear lens kind of overlapped the plastic piece, so I just made sure to seal where the lip of the clear piece meets the grey back plastic piece real good with silicone and let it dry overnight. It looks kinda ugly from the back once it's done but no one will ever see that side anyway. The factory seals on these things seem to be cheaply done. You might not get condensation right away, or even at all if you happened to get a good set. It's just an inexpensive way of avoiding a headache down the road.
