Need help installing front clear parking lenes

Can someone tell how to get to the front parking lights? Instead of just starting to tear things apart, like I would usually do, and figure it out for myself thought I would ask first. Thanks

You need a 7mm socket and a 10mm socket. 7mm to remove the lower spoiler and plastic covering from under the front end of the car. Push brake duct to the side to access the front parking lense. 7mm socket on outer side, 10mm socket near the center and there is also a spring in the center that you need to remove. Then reverse. Pretty easy to do. Did it without lifting the car, but lifting the car would make it easier.

Garage Pit: Very cool garage feature for any DIY'er.

Thanks for the info. I saw these lights at Bloomington and wanted to know how to install them. The vendor mentioned you have to take the front fascia off, which seemed very strange to me. Seems like it is much easier than I thought.

Lights are in not too bad of a job. Like everythings else very easy after you do it once. The pit made it really easy. Have to get different bulbs now. May have pics tomorrow.
