Sum1 said the after market clear light one doesn't fit 100% perfectly previously on this thread and it damaged their car at high speed. Any1 else had the same issue ?! I m most likely gonna go with the clear light but don't want that to happen to me :s

I didn't use the DIY as it involved much more work than needed. Just open up the hood and look down the sides. Twist the light out, press the top tab on the side marker to in-hook it. Then the side markers pops right out. I had a hard time with putting the first one on, but 2nd one took only couple minutes. After you receive the replacement sidemarkers, it is pretty easy to see how to in-hook it.
Make sure engine is cold when you do this.

I got my smoked ones from ebay, it was cheap. Perfect match with our headlights.
Just search for sidemarker.
