    marker light removal?

    I got fed up & did nightshades on 6 of my marker lights yesterday. They look decent. But I wasn't able to remove the round lights from the front bumper or rear bumper. Anyone know how these come off?

    p.s.
    The 3rd brake light doesn't have a plug to disconnect the light, so I wasn't able to nightshade it.

    You should be able to twist and then pull the front bumper running lights (round lights) out. They only twist 1/4 to 1/2 of a turn. Once you pull them out I believe that there is a snap/lock connection that you can undo to completely remove them.
    The round "lights" in the rear bumper are actually reflectors (unless yours have been replaced). The reflectors have a threaded rod on the back of them and are held in place by a nut on the back side of the bumper. You may have to contort yourself to get behind the bumper to see the nut, but it should come off fairly easily.

    More hassle than it's worth on the back reflectors, it sounds like. My front rounds are marked "Nissan", is this normal? One has a crack in it.
