For those that need an example like I did, here's a basic one:

 // Map and directions objects

 var map = new google.maps.Map( element, options );

 var service = new google.maps.DirectionsService();

 var directions = new google.maps.DirectionsRenderer({suppressMarkers: true});



 // Start/Finish icons

 var icons = {

  start: new google.maps.MarkerImage(

   // URL

   'start.png',

   // (width,height)

   new google.maps.Size( 44, 32 ),

   // The origin point (x,y)

   new google.maps.Point( 0, 0 ),

   // The anchor point (x,y)

   new google.maps.Point( 22, 32 )

  ),

  end: new google.maps.MarkerImage(

   // URL

   'end.png',

   // (width,height)

   new google.maps.Size( 44, 32 ),

   // The origin point (x,y)

   new google.maps.Point( 0, 0 ),

   // The anchor point (x,y)

   new google.maps.Point( 22, 32 )

  )

 };



service.route( { origin: origin, destination: destination }, function( response, status ) {

 if ( status == google.maps.DirectionsStatus.OK ) {

  display.setDirections( response );

  var leg = response.routes[ 0 ].legs[ 0 ];

  makeMarker( leg.start_location, icons.start, title );

  makeMarker( leg.end_location, icons.end, 'title' );

 }

});

function makeMarker( position, icon, title ) {

 new google.maps.Marker({

  position: position,

  map: map,

  icon: icon,

  title: title

 });

}

The response from a route request returns a leg(s) depending on the number of stops on your route. I am only doing a A to B route, so just take the first leg, and get the position of where the markers need to go, and create markers for those spots.
