I think you have to get at those from the back side of the bumper? I'm not sure, I don't have sidemarkers at all on my 09'.

rear sidemarkers are a PITA, at least on the 1st gen hatch... I could only take them out when I took off the bumper... mine were in there.

Thanks, learn something new every day. Never paid attention... I even searched for the T250 body style to see if they had it at that model or just got rid of it at the last model... and you're right, T200 body style is the only one that comes with the side markers...

Re: How do i take out the sidemarkers

Well, I guess I should correct myself...none of the American Gen2's have them. All other countries with the Aveo/G3/Barina/Kalos have headlights w/out the light in the side of them and have sidemarkers instead.

It looks like they just moved the side maker up to the headlight. But Barina's rear bumper has no side markers from what could see.

i got them out, i had to remove a part of the rear inner fender well. and they only light up when the lights are on, they don't act as a turn signal they just shine amber when the lights are all on.

If you're talking about the rear ones, they do illuminate.. You can make them work as a turn signal, they can alternate with it. Just wire it as follows:

You could wire pretty much any side marker to alternate with the turn signal using this diagram...
