I don't have pics but I lined mine up with the average height of the outter door handles, and 4 to 5 inches off the edge of the fender, I then measured the placement on the first side, taped it with an x and copied the measurement to the other side.

Do you need to drill any holes while install the side markers?

i have the nissan cefiro sidemarkers on my fenders. most people line it up with the top of the wheelwell horizontally. thats where mine are. ill post up pics tomorrow when theres light. cutting requires a dremel. lots of measuring before cutting, measure, cut, measure cut. just dont make the hole too big or else it wont stay snug.
