hello everyone,

its blaine again, from Holy Rollerz. I will be needing to remove all exterior lights (heads, fogs, corners, flood, corners, markers) to be shipped off the california for tinting - and i need some help. The first place i thought to turn to was you all here at benzworld!

for the heads, i saw the awesome sticky post up at the top for the light removal, but will that also allow me to remove the light covers? does the same procedure hold true for the fogs?

corner lights, does anyone car to share some insight in how to pop these covers off?

flood lights, these babies look pretty straight forward to remove, up here under the spoiler, will there be any surprises?

corner markers, how do i pop these little lights off?

tail lights, these look pretty easy to get to from the trunk. is there an easy removal process?

you all totally rock, a huge thanks!

headlight lens removes via spring/circ clips. there may be some sealant holding
the lens to the housing and keeping moisture out.

they just pry off. be careful not to scratch the paint

flood lights, these babies look pretty straight forward to remove, up here under the spoiler, will there be any surprises?

there is a single bolt which is easily accessible through the fog light hatch. drop
that...and remove fog light wiring and the housing can be pivoted out the hatch....
though Greg210 suggests removing the large dinner table plate directly below
the engine for easier fog light removal.

corner markers, how do i pop these little lights off?

tail lights, these look pretty easy to get to from the trunk. is there an easy removal process?

inside trunk...and trunk lid...is the trunk liner. the around-the-corner tail light is
an easy removal. use flashlight to see 3-4 nuts. dont drop down into the recessed
area or you'll spend some time trying to find them. for the trunk lid, you'll need
to remove the plastic liner retainers. these are two part fasteners: pry out the
inner cap first, which acts to spread the larger/outer fastener like a primative
pop rivet.

oh, for corner lights i was speaking of the turn signals, is that what you understood? so, they just pry off?

The turn signals are integrated into the taillamps and headlamps. Did you mean the side marker lamps, on the front fenders? There's a clip holding these in. You reach in through a small panel in front of each tire to release that clip.
