Default Installing Rear Side Markers...

I'm about to install the rear side markers... anyone have any advice? The only way I can even see how to get to the backs of them on the car (to take off stock and install new) is to go in through the rear tire well - removing wheel and molding. Is there an easier way?

Thanks,
Adam

I tried both ways and I think going through the wheel well is way easier.Especially if you have big hands like me!!!Either way will work.
