Sidemarkers and Turn Signals

how do you remove the front lower sidemarkers? I can get one side off but not the other. its pretty annoying. it looks like the passenger side sidemarker needs to be unscrewed from within the wheel well but is that necessary? the driver's side pops off pretty easily.

and for the stock turn signals. how do you get rid of the orange inside? i did a search and someone said bake them then they pop right off. how long do you bake it and at what temperature? the little clips that keep the lens on don't want to come out. any advice/help would be MUCH appreciated! thanks!

Clear up the front turn signals is easy. Just use a heat gun or baek the lights in the oven for a little bit to soften the glue; then pry them open. When you open it up you'll see the the anber colerd part is just held on by a screw. Unscrew it and take it out. I then used some silicon adhesive to seal them back up.

Heres a pic of them on my 7. https://www.rx7club.com/forum/showth...threadid=40398
Its the first and second pic that I posted.

theres one screw you have to undo on the inside wheel well, it makes it very easy if you just remove the wheel and theres also a little plastic tab on the same side as the screw that you have to bend to allow it to be removed
