Can you be a little more specific with your question? Are you clearing your headlights?

When I removed and re-installed my OEM headlights, I was able to do it without scratching the frame at all by putting the outside corner in first with the light almost perpendicular to the front of the car, then moving the inside corner of the light into position as the light moves into place.

Hope this helps to answer your question.

Thank you...I was a bit confused there for a sec. As Coles mentioned above, you should be able to slide them in fairly easily without them being scratched up (or startched up ) at all. Good luck.
