Anyone have the skinny on how to get to the backside of these? Through the wheelwell?

Also, what's the best way to remove stock intake resonator (under airbox)? I'm assuming also through the wheelwell?

Just tinted my rear side markers, they look pretty slick black on black. Planning to do the fronts (if I can get the damn things out without dismantling the whole car).

Greg, just run your hand up the inside of the fender from the bottom of the car. There's a little tab you press in on one of the sides I forget if it's at the front or back of it but yeah you can push it out from there

imo, it's a whole lot easier to just take out the lining in the wheel well. you have to do this to remove the resonator anyway.

as for the backside ones you should be able to get to them from the trunk. well i have a hatch and i can get to them from that way, it might be different for a vert. if u gonna do the front the tab to get them out its the side closest to the tire. you get use a flat head screw driver with sumthin soft to protected the paint and wedge it in alil then use sumthin to push the tab in alil then it should come right out.

OK, I'll pull the fender liner (again).

Rear ones were easy to get to, and look way cool. I may do the taillights as well depending on how the car looks with these done.
