need some help please!!!
Hey everyone, I'm picking up my CLS63 on Monday and I would like to change the amber reflectors on the front bumper to clear reflectors. Those amber reflectors are way too ugly for such a great looking car!!! Any help is greatly appreciated!!!

Will post some pics once I pick it up....

DO A SEARCH ON REFLECTORS OR SIDE MARKERS HERE.. YOU WILL FIND MORE INFO.. THE BOTTOM LINE IS YOU JUST PULL THEM STRAIGHT OUT WITH YOUR HANDS, TWIST BULB HOUSING OUT, TWIST IT INTO THE NEW UNIT AND PUSH BACK IN.... IF YOU CANNOT PULL THE OEM MARKER OUT WITH YOUR FINGERS USE A SCREW DRIVER ON ONE SIDE TO PULL THEM OUT.. DONT PRY BUT PULL.. SCREW DRIVER RIGHT BEHIND THE BACK OF THE MARKER AND PULL OUTWARD MAKING SURE YOU ARE NOT PRYING BACK AGAINST YOUR BUMPER AND PAINT JOB..

GOOD LUCK

you can pull the plastic off next to the fog light and put your hand inside and pop it out that way too...

i pulled it off the reflectors first, but then i decided to put yellow lights in them and the ebay reflector's plastic clip isn't as flexible and i didn't want to break it, so i removed the grill and put my hand up in there to pop it out the second time.
