you dont need them to attach that lights. I pulled mine off to do some body work... it looks kinda goofy with out them though unless you wire in some different lights or something.. the lights on the car stick out like a sore thumb with no molding... you could prolly get you some decent sidemakers for any ricer store but there gonna have to be so big to cover the hole that is there for the wires to come through

yeah i took mine off
pretty easy sine they were glued on
although bits of the glue stayed but i was going to strip the car anyway
but a molding less red seven looks smick
theres nothing weird with a moldless sa
a nice white one got in a custom rotor mag just resently
