Two studs on the ftp lenses and two 10mm nuts holding them in. Undo those the push it out just be carefull sense the studs break easy. Think i got to the nuts by poping up the headlights and going under them.

you have to get in behind them with a wrench/ratchet (you may have to remove some of the plastic casing around the headlight I forget)......and a lot of times when you pull them out you will find that the plastic around the metal bolts is cracked, even if not be careful not to over tighten them when putting them back in

naw there 10mm. last time i pulled someout it was easier to remove the head light assembly and set it to the side.
alternativly you could just break them out and make the value of the sets i have increase

They want you to permanently glue those? I'm good.

Raise the headlights with the retractor switch.
Remove the RETRACTOR fuse (important safety step).
Remove the plastic headlight surrounds.
Reach in and undo the two 10mm nuts.
Push the lense out.
