Having problems installing clear corners...

I'm following the write up from vq power and it's not going as smooth as it sounded it should be. First off, they aren't comming off with ease (hell, they aren't coming off at all), and second I chipped some paint.

If anyone knows of a better how to, I would appreciate it. I've looked and searched for another, but have found none.

Your owner's manual has instructions too... Pg 8-29.

make sure to wrap a thick towel around the screwdriver so that you don't chip the paint...try not to pry them out using the edge of the car just stick the screwdriver in there and lift....

for the fronts you can remove your headlights, and have a clear look at the backside of the corners. then just push them out by pushing on the metal clip holding them in place.
or you can remove the lower splash guard, and push them out that way.

Well, the damage is already done, but I got it in and they look good. Maybe I'll take pics tonight and post them in here.

Thanks for the help guys.
