yeah undo all the bolts on the back of the light. it is also stuck in with this tacky glue type stuff to stop water gettin in so you have to wedge a screwdriver between the light and the body and slowly ease it out. just make sure you dont break the plasic or scratch your paint up. i usually use a cloth ontop of the screwdriver to stop this.

but breaking the seal wont that let water in???

because i want to cheat with the cheap option and put tigths on my lights lol

nah you just have to make sure that all the gooey stuff stays on either the light or the car. then just stick it back on once your done. if it leaks a bit (mine did but only after taking it off and putting it back on for the hundreth time) just wack some silicone around it.

5 min with a hair drier and they practically fall out

i tried to get some out of the scrappy and obviously didn't have my hair drier with me lol and i ended up breaking them so i strongly suggest the use of a hair drier, good luck mate
