Default My version of the clear corner mod...no bumper removal

I think there were 4 bolts..the two on the top and then another near the outside of the radiator (behind the black plastic - feel around for it) and the last one is way down near the top end of the light and can be reached through an access hole in the quarterpanel...have a long extender ready for your torx wrench.

Then with a little play the light should come out...unhook all of the wire harnesses then unscrew the screw that holds the silver reflector allowing you to have a little more movement in there...then through the hole where the amber light goes just stick in a set of needlenose pliers or skinny wire snippers and start crackin! Make sure the light is put back carefully b/c it will line up with the holes without being completley flush with the fenders. Some people will drill a hole near where the little tab holds the reflector in, I just kind of pryed it out of there...in hindsight it might be safer to drill, this way you wont slip and scratch the lens, but then you have to deal with sealing it back up with silicone.

If anyone has trouble locating all of the screws let me know and I can take a few pics after work.
