Project done. Amplified Motorsports did the installation. They know all the tricks to locate them on the fenders now and I left the template with them for any of you Southern CA owners that are interested. They can do it while you wait ... contact them for pricing.

Goes nicely with the JDM tails:

One more time ...
To help me get started on this again, I’ve been getting some help from G35s-Dude who was kind enough to pull his side markers off for a few pictures. They are very easy to remove and replace:
From the pictures, I was able to create a template in Adobe Illustrator. I printed the template onto a piece of white label material and stuck it to a thin sheet of steel. It looks a little chewed up because I had it in a vise.
Then I drilled and filed the sheet metal. It turns out the template worked perfectly.
It looks like all I need to do now is to place the sticker template on the fenders in the right location, drill a few holes, then file or grind to size.
Next step, see what kind of connectors I need and make sure the electrical works before cutting anything. This is starting to look pretty easy.
Stay tuned.

Could you send me the template for the side markers ?
I am busy installing them myself, and the template would help alot!
Thanks in advance,

Sorry ... I don't have it or the car anymore. Best thing to do is copy it from the picture here and scale it to the actual light. Then transfer it onto a piece of sheet metal and cut the hole. You can file or dremel the sheet metal to the right size and test to see it is snug before cutting into you fender. Good luck!
