btw, do I use them to release the reflector? I've tried using a screw driver, it loosened the reflector but it's not out yet. It's stuck. lol.. God, I'm a noob.

Technically, a car needs to have both an amber side marker AND an amber side reflector at the front (to meet US regulations). The stock side marker is both light and reflector. But most people run the side marker with a white bulb (LED most of the time) and have no problems.

Just want to say thank you for the guide. I used it to install my JDM clear corners, and they look a lot better than I thought they would! For some reason beyond me, my car already had clear bulbs in it so I don't have that yellowish tint in them, either. I'm pretty satisfied.
But anyway, yeah, thanks for the guide! It was all very simple, but I wouldn't have felt comfortable doing it without this.

If what you mean is that your corners included a bulb socket, you can simply remove the new sockets and discard them and then use the existing socket installed on your car. You will still want to switch to the amber bulb.
