You can't clear the sidemarkers, you just have to buy new ones. Mg Racing sells them (sponsor) and Rick's Signature Accessories (sponsor) will be selling them soon. As far as the headlights go, I put one at a time in the oven at 200 degrees for 10 min, then took it out and pried with my hands. As I pulled them apart, my father put wooden splints in there to keep the housing separated. Then I put them back in the oven for another 5 min and pulled again and repeated this process. The job was a cinch. I did it in about 3 hours including taking off the bumper and putting it back on. The results are awesome. Go to the FAQ section on this board because they show pictures. Using a heatgun while prying will make life easier. The only thing I stress is do not be too aggressive. I was very aggressive and did it so quick because I knew what I was doing. leave yourself at least 6 hours. Also this is a two man job!!!! Do not go about it without a helper. I am sure people have done this without assistance, but I would not recommend it. Good luck!
