5 minutes with some sturdy string and you're done. Search the FAQ section or I recall someone else asking this just a few days ago. Dig a little and you'll find it. Very easy, the plastic inserts pop out and the reflectors go right in...

I have one last question, can I get these from the dealer or should I go to the recommended website posted in the FAQ section?

Dealer is ok. When us older guys got our cars a year+ ago, the dealers did not have the reflectors so we got them from Bekkers. Dealers now have them and there is not a big difference in price. And if you get them through the dealer you bought the car from, you can usually get them to change them for you for free.

I got them from the dealer $11.50 each. saved shipping charges and I got them instantly... Most dealers now have them in stock.
Red Reflectors look a lot better! and it distinguishes those "in the know" and those that arn't
