invest in a dremel, you'll be surprised how often you use it. i'd practice on some sheet metal if you've never cut metal. I'm sure someone in florida can help you out, all those guys have sidemarkers lol.

you can find sheet metal at homedepot for $1.50 and a dremel 10 spd for $30 .

i recently did it and it wasn't hard at all. just nerve racking when first putting the dremel to the body... once you cut... can't turn back!

It was easy though. it took me probably about 3-4 hrs.
approximately:
45 minutes to create a template
30 minutes to line up where to cut and mask off surrounding area.
1 1/2 hr for first side. (took my time to get it right)
30 minutes for the other side.
about 20 minutes to wire em up.

i took a long time because i wanted to do it right. rush and it's off to the junk yard to find 2 new fenders.

advice: take your time.

I tapped the outermost bulb of the corner so my sidemarkers stay on with parking lights and alternate/blink when signaling.

When tapped to the rear bulb in the corner light, the sidemarkers will stay on and flash, just like the bulb in the corner light.

i must write that down in my note pad....

as for the topic, do take you're time and you'll be fine

Make sure you line your templates up straight on the body. crooked sidemarkers are shitty. and be sure to seal your cuts with some touch up paint so your fenders don't rust.

Here's a copy of the oem template, if anyone needs it.

Does anyone have a guide for the exact location of where to cut in the fender? The guide in the DIY is a little vague. I'd rather have measurements then two pieces of paper lined up. This info would be extremely helpful.

Just like previously mentioned, this is what I come up with when I search.

I've read that DIY almost 20 times, and I'm still unsure of how to use the paper rectangles to find the location..
