yellow corner light lense removal

refer to picture below:
as you can see i used night shade on my turn signals, tail lights & 3rd break light. i think it turned out really neat and wanna get one last yellow spot but its in my corner lights..
i took the corner lights off want to remove the yellow lense inside so i can paint it better than having to tape off the whole headlight & around.
whats the best way to remove that lense? i dont wanna break it i see theres like little clips or something should i use a screw driver or what?
let me know! thanks

you put the corner lens in your oven, turn to 350 degrees and let it bake for 5 minutes...remove headlight and use a flathead screwdriver and pry the lens off...HAHAHA dunno though. You might as well just tint your corner lights too.

Don't go out on a sunday night unless your wanting it to get impounded.
Why not just order the clear bumper lenses and a set of aftermarket headlights? Legal and looks better.

Yeeeeeah... that car is certainly not legal. Unless you pass by a cop that's so high he doesn't even remember his own name, you're gonna get a big ticket.

Very bad idea spraying those turn signals. They're very hard to see in factory form to begin with, but those must be invisible. The tail lights are flirting with being too dark as well. The corner lenses though... why? You can't see those as they are LOL. 194 is totally useless there...

Yeah hey why don't you just remove the tail and headlights? Then weld some sheet metal in place and paint it flat black, that'll look cool too.

Did you rattle can or roll on the flat?I personally like it,to each his own.I'm going to be doing flat black on mine too,if I had a new car I wouldn't but my paint so bad as it is, I wanna just paint it cheap after I fix my cancerous rust.
