a car that can't do the throttle reset.
NO! someone is giving you bad info. just push them. they are held in place by nothing more than some glue... they slide right off, just give alot of force.

I was just guessing there, thats how all the other side markers I have ever taken off work... Bad to assume, we all know what happens...

pointman, which direction do you push them off, towards the front bumper or the rear bumper?
