There's a safe way to do the front: http://www.innerbean.com/housecor/cl...demarkers.html

For the back, just wrap a flathead in a towel and pop out front part of the lens closer to the front of the car. Be careful, it's easy to scar the lens or the car.

Did you even check your owner's manual?

Put a towel between lens and body of your car and pop it out w/ flat head screwdriver. Your owner's manual will tell you how to do it.

And yes

Since it does not take much to scar (scare?) the paint, I go from underneath and push it out by hand. The front is easy to do this...but the back you have to use the screwdriver method.
