very easy, all is needed is a small screw driver to pry them out of the wing. seams they have a resistor inside as there's no errors. speaking of which to cure
the parking light errors with those LED angel eyes you will need a 10ohm 10 watt resistor, maplins sell them very cheap.

Thanks blood! Did you cut into your wire for the resistor or solder to the bulb?

I believe the reason your not getting errors is because the sidemarkers aren't monitored. I took my bulbs out and turned on the blinker and didn't get an error.

Looks good!

yah, they are the light smoked amber LED side markers that trinity sells.
I have the same ones, and they look so much better than the stock orange bulbs and clear housing.

That's what I suspected. I have the same ones, and think they look nicer than the dark ones on my silver car.
