OK... I know it’s late and with all due respect...

Forty-five bucks on eBay and two minutes to remove/install you can have real, live smoke side markers without the rattle can dance.

Just say’n...

I understand... that’s cool.

The assembly pops out from the front sliding against a built-in tensioner.

Yes, sir... slide front to back with one of your plastic interior tools. Or, mask the bumper around the leading edge of the lens and use a small screw driver. It’ll take about 3/16” movement to clear the retaining ‘hook’ on the back side.
