it took me 45 mins to install mine....
if you're not electronically inclined then you might run into some problems.....
as for install its pretty easy... usually you take off the wheel liner and splice the wires from there depending on how you want your lights to work....
other than that... its a piece of cake...

you have a 4th gen right ? Just pop up the hood, and there shoud be a screw near the top of the headlight. unscrew than and then with a flat screw driver, between the corner light and the fender and just pop it off. you will have to turn the bulb sockets like 1/4 of a turn and they will come off. get the new light and put it in. if they are some cheap lights you might have some alignament problems. you just gotta take your time to align them and you will be all set. after the alignament just screw the thing near the top of the headlight. Total time 15 minutes.

Are you talking about side markers, where a light doesn't already exist? If you're talking about replacing stock lights, 10-20 minutes max.

Except if its stuck real well..

In which case you should spray som WD-40 a few minutes before the operation.
