Default turning signals and running side lights removal

Doe anyone know who to remove the front turning signals and the side running lights?
I want to remove so I can tint them.

The side markers are very easy. Take a flat blade screwdrive and insert it in the back and then just pop it out. You may want to cover it with a towel to avoid scratching the paint, but it is held in surprisingly very lightly

The front turn signals are a little more difficult. Jack up the front of the car, remove the wheel and pull the fender liner back out of the way. There is a spring clip on the outside edge (white, pinch it and the turn signal can slide over it and then pull back to the outside to unhook the front clip.

You're welcome thuxel. Are you changing out the turn signals and side markers? I replaced my turn signals with the clear lens/black interior. Then I used some Nite Shade later to darken the clear cover. I also popped off the side markers and used the Nite Shade on those.

I'm just going to tint them, I thought about the clear ones.
I saw someone had them for sale here.
I was going to tint them tonight but don't feel like removing the wheels.
I don't have an air gun.
