Typically on a 2006 model you can remove them from the outside by prying them loose from the rear of the marker light. If you want to play it safe, you can access the light from inside of the fender well. There are push pins that hold the liner in place, pry them out with a small screw driver and reach in side. You can then move the marker forward and release the tab. It is an easy job.

They are no listed in the owner's manual other than it says it is a complex process and owner should take the car to the dealer... It look about 3 minutes to pry both our (carefully) and snap the clear ones back in.

I got mine on ebay, I think they are great, I was scared to scratch/damage my bumper so I removed the 3 or 4 bolts on the fender liner and it was finished, took an extra minute or two, but I'd say it is worth it
