...and that's why we have high insurance rates! Do us all a favor: if you ever find out who, beat the crap out of them! If you need help, I'm sure there's at least three other members that live by you that can do the trick. But, in the meantime, replace it (and the other side) with a set of clear corners. You'll be happy.

Um, I think you said that someone stole your side marker light and cut the wire? If so, yeah that does blow.

HAHA, there is probably 1 person out there at all times without sidemarker because 1 person needed them once.

It took that guy longer to cut the wire than to remove the bulb housing. Guy must've had a Max with the same thing done to him!

thanks you all for the support the thing thant really makes me mad is the marker light only cost 30 dollars online. my dealer is going to fix for me it's going to cost $36 for the marker he will put new ends on the wires just hope that the harness isn't damaged nissian wants 1200.00 for a new one. had to drive my old car to work today just didn't want to drive the max with the marker missing i hate this i got the car to drive not to have it sit in the driveway.

Damn, in Long Island City, too? That's not that far from where I live. That sucks. Sorry to hear that. Did you have stock sidemarkers or clears? I remember hearing that people were stealing 4th Gen clears all the time.

that's just wrong dude. i hope it was a clean job atleast. because if the thief is an amateur then they'll end up f'n up half the car to get what they want. i remember a guy on here who had his whole car vandalized. and the dumb ***** ripped out the trunk lock out of it's housing to open the trunk instead of using the trunk release inside the car after they ripped out his stereo equipment.
