I am with skyking...what do you mean? The remove them pop the hood and they are clamps you need to remove. If you are asking where to buy clear corners, I bought mine from bekkers.com years ago, don't know if they still sell them. They also have crystal clear corners out there, personally I am not a fan, but you can probably pick them up on eBay. Let us know what you are talking about and I am sure we can assist you.

what do you mean, please?

We would love to help but I don't think anyone knows what you mean. Do you need to know how to remove the corner lights currently in the car? Do you need help finding where to buy new corner lights? If you mean removing...on a 94 c280...open hood look behind corner light and you will see a plastic tab...pull the tab toward the engine while tapping on the back of the corner light and it will slide forward and out. the corner light has 2 tabs on its side that slides into 2 slots on the headlight. Look on ebay for pics of the headlight removed and you will see the 2 slots on the side of the headlight if the pic shows the light from the side...and same thing for the corner light...find a pic on eBay that shows you the large tab and and the 2 smaller side tabs. I use eBay all the time for situations like this when I'm not sure how something should be removed...find a pic on eBay of someone who has already removed it! Hope this tip helps!
