According to the manual the rear markers pop out. I'd recommend busting out the manual for specific instructions.

I believe you need to open up the wheel well to get to the fronts.

Just curious, what are you doing? Replacing them with tinted lenses?

For the front you can access them from removing the lower cover on the underside....

Default Replacing Marker Lights

I am trying to replace all four marker lights with smoked ones. I have the new smoked lenses in my possession, but just need to find the best way to replace them. Anyone have a .pdf of the procedures (from the manual) they could email me?

Based on the info in this thread you don't have enough information for both lenses? If you're looking for step-by-step instructions with photos I do not believe this has been created by anyone. You should document the process and post it for others. As mentioned in previous posts, the rear markers should pop out with a putty knife. I'd use something plastic over metal so that you don't scratch your paint. Wilki gave info on the front lenses - accessible from underneath the car. You'll have to remove part of the underbody which is probably held in place with screws.

Let us know how it goes and be sure to post pictures

Do you guys prefer smoked markers or color-matched?
