I just bought some APC sidemarkers. What size drill bit do I use? What do I put on it so it doesn't rust? Any other tips? I searched but nobody has the APC ones. Thanks.

 

Hmm. My friend did this on his alty. He did a how to for my website

www.maine-street.com then click "The Garage"

 

I don't see a link for "the garage". Also how do you guys think the sidemarkers will look lined up with the door trim? Too low?

I guess i removed the link from the maine page, hehe. I need to fix that =)

 

i got my sidemarkers for $20 and it cost me $40 for a shop to put them on and wire them,

I got mine for $15, and I'm planing on installing it for $0.

That is if somebody helps me...

 

You mean on the front fender right? yeah, thats exactly waht i was thinking when or if i do it, but then i think im just gonna decide to rewire the bumper lens one so it blinks instead. Plus all the side markers i see buldge out too much so eh....

 

good luck man, I didnt wana risk screwing up my fenders so I put it in the hands of a shop.

p.s. messing up fenders cost alot of $$ for new ones or giving your max to a shop and if they mess up the fenders they buy u new fenders,

this is a easy thing to do, and to pay someone 40 dollars for this is crazy, all you need it a dremel. That thing rules.

if you need help P.M. me

dont be so cheap, pay the $40 to get it done by a pro, hehe

 

If somebody else can do it, why can't I?

Thats my philosophy.

Anyway, if I was able to install my own springs, without help from "pros", I'm sure I can do this...

 

I think the "proper" way to do it is with a sheetmetal nibbler (after drilling pilot holes), but a Dremel should work. ....of course the nibbler would be a helluva lot faster - I wonder how much you can rent one for?

 

not really, the dremel took me about a minute to do and its nice and small for jobs like this

 

you guys are missing the point. I don't need to make a cutout. Just drill a hole.
