Wanting to remove and tint side maker reflectors and front turn signals what's the best way to get them off
use a butter knife
Side markers you just pop out using a flat thin tool. But be careful of the paint. The fronts you have to go behind the bumper and squeeze the clips and pull out. Of course unplugging the sockets. You can see them pretty easy just by getting the front in the air.
Nice... I was wondering whether the rears just popped out or if they were held by a clip of some sort. Thanks for the info.
I just replaced mine with smoke lens, the rears are easy, just put a screwdriver or something flat on the back of the rear lens and push forward they pop right out, the manual tells you to pry against the body, you dont need to do that! The fronts were a little more challenging, there is a bolt right in front of the tire on the black plastic cover at the bottom, remove that and you can pull the liner away, then you reach up with a 1/4 ratchet and a deep socket, I do believe it was a 8mm... cripes I keep replacing stuff on my car and every nut and bolt is different! Just put a billet battery box in last nite. If you have large arms expect to get smushed! lmao... but they are easy once you get the socket on the nut.
