1NZYaris1, thanks for the offer but nah. There's a good chance I'm just going to wind up cutting away most of the plastic on the back so it's more smooth and apply some 3M double sided adhesive that I have left. Anyways, now I'm back to wondering if I even do have that harness

The sedans don't have the feed for the side turn signals. You would need to tap the turn signals on your headlights to feed them.

Ah... I had a bad feeling after removing part of the wheel well earlier. So should I just extend the harness that comes with the markers and tap splice into the green turn signal wires in the fuse box? Or would it be easier to splice into the red(?) wire that connects to the amber bulb at the back of each headlight.

... Or could there be an even easier way that won't make me want to tear my hair out?

So one wire in the harness to tap the green headlight wire, and the other to attach to the chassis for grounding, right?
