pop the hood... on the clear corner there is a screw that screws into a plastic piece and into some metal.. unscrew that and push the clear corner towards the back of the car.. it will slid out... install in reverse

ok..i havent done it on my lara but its generally the same way.

there should be a screw that attaches it to the frame. once that is off the light is generally held using a nipple...yes i said nipple!

put on it gently n it should come rite off. i dont know how many srews there r initially..i will chk n let u know if no one else replys here

Dont forget about the clip where the corner meets the headlight.... I just used a thin piece of metal and wrapped it in a paper towel, so it won't scratch anything, to slide between the two to depress it when taking out the old corners.

Unscrew one screw, Pull the corner lens off, then take the bulb w/ holder out of the lens, put it into the new lens, push the new lens back, and screw it back in.

Nothing else is necessary...and I dont remember a clip that meets the headlight. Just a clip that meets the frame on the outside of the corner lenses
