Slide them either to the front or rear of the vehicle and lift using a butter knife or similar.

it's a little bit tricky, a mate just pryed them out (carefully) with a flat head screwdriver but ended up breaking the clips on the old ones.

i wanted to keep the old ones just in case so ended up jacking the front of the car up and taking out a couple of the plastic studs that hold the inner guard lining so I could get up behind the indicator and pop it out properly.

took a bit longer, but sometimes it pays to spend a little extra time to make sure it is done right.

Seriously no need to take the guards off it's a 5 min job at most to do them! And that was when I was being a baby and was afread I'd end up damaging my car somehow!

You've got the clear sideys, look at them and you'll see where the clips are. Get a butter knife like choyda said, or something wide and thin. If you are concerned about damaging paint or clips then cover it with a thin piece of cloth.

Run the knife around the edge and you'll feel where the clips are. Just a simple matter of levering it out, changing bulbs and putting the new ones on.

yeah I tried that had a cloth underneath and still managed to crack the indiactor and chip the paint I was very p*ssed off with myself.
