Front clear side markers! Help!
Ok, So I bought clear side markers a couple months ago. These are the right ones, but am having some trouble. After these things sitting in my garage for the last couple months I decided to try this tonight. Has anyone successfully replaced these on their E63? Can someone give me some instructions for this? I started to pop these off and the amber lense broke off. I am committed now to getting this done as I have basically broken mine now. I can get my hand behind the bumper but cant seem to get it loose and dont want to break anything behind it.
Can anyone tell me how to get these particular ones out?

nevermind.... got it....
Found another threat where luiquidii said he took a putty knife to break a clip. I decided to use a demel to seperate the clip, came off like a charm.
New clear side markers FINALLY installed!!! I have had these for 2-3 months and just didnt get around to it, until 10pm tonight!
New ones popped right in. I kept the stock clear bulbs instead of the amber ones that came with the clear markers. So clear markers, clear bulb. Looks pretty good

Wow! Just had a chance to look at it in the daylight. The clear side markers REALLY set off the front end! Wish I had done this a while ago. Better late then never I guess. Calls for a new photo shoot in the near future!

I got mine on eBay for 40 bux. There are also smoked lenses available for another 10 bux more, I believe.

Thanks all! Yeah I really like how it came out. So much I just got back from a mini photo shoot. Gonna start another thread with the photos.
I cant wait for the Diffuser to be done. I think that will be the last CF item I put on the outside of the car. Dont want to go overboard

I can't believe I'm saying this but I like the orange better. I ended up hating those clear ones and the smoked ones on my black e63. Now every time I see them on any color I hate them. It's like the car needs that orange separation or something on the E63. It all just flows together too well or something. I do have clear and smoked for sale at a great price if anyone wants them. They were on the car for about 5 hours each lol.
