They should pop out rather easily. Just be careful not to damage the body/OEM lense. I installed the clear corners on my car in my garage, and had no problems.

clear bumper lenses

They sell them @ EBAY. When you do your search type W210 and all the parts will pop up. The lenses are easy to install. Get a flat head screwdriver and put tape on the tip so you dont scratch the paint and pry it out.
Done

Actually, there may be a safer way to remove them. There is a hole in the fender wells behind the front tires that you can stick a flathead screwdriver into to pry out the lenses. You won't risk scratching your paint job that way. I recall seeing this topic posted some time ago with pictures on where the hole is.
