Okay guys.. I just finished my 2gb front install and everything is fine.

Yet, I tried to get my side markers in, and they won't go in!
The clip to the back isn't.... clipping.. It isn't broken, and it won't go in the new or old bumper, am i stupid or is there a trick to popping them in

They just pop in, so either your doing something wrong or something isnt right.

-nick-
 
The side closest to the door goes in first on an angle, you will see there is a lip on the back of the sidemarker. Once that side is in then the side closest to the headlight goes in, this is the side with the metal clip.
 
i had kinda the same problem, i first tryed to pop in the side marker but then went behind the bumper and pushed out on the little lip or plastic that the metal clip connects to and it did the trick (not sure it makes sence, but its one of those things thats easier shown than explained)
