I took it just about everyday unless I had to work late and traffic on 680 had died down. Usually I'd get stuck behind slow traffic so it's not like it was as fun as it would be with a clear road, but still better than bumper to bumper traffic.

I can't get these side markers off. I followed the videos. Doesn't make sense, I can swap out water pumps, suspensions, etc, but I'm struggling with side markers?!

I'll spend more time on my day off. lol. I'm concerned that I might scratch my wheel. I'll remove the wheel and have more space to work. I just couldn't see the tab.

If you've never taken them off, it takes a pretty good tug to get the clips to pop out. Once you take them off though, its pretty hard to keep them on if you've damaged the clips

Also why I want to make sure I disengaged the clip before tugging on the side markers. lol. Can't know if I did without clearly seeing where they would be. I'll be patient and just install them on Tuesday (got my V-LED HVA bulbs in today that's why, but I was at work for 12 hours).

Are you replacing them with something else (ie clear side markers)? Its only an issue if you are reusing the existing ones, like in my case, just taking off the bumper.

Autoblog review of the 2017 BRZ. Que comments section bitching about it "still not having 250hp".

http://www.autoblog.com/2016/07/08/2...-drive-review/

When are people going to realize that these cars are not about horsepower? I challenge anyone with a high horsepower M3 to try to keep up with me on Mines.

@MisterSheep can vouch for me here.
