Jack the front up, there are like 5/7 screws in the fender well access panel. Then you have a spring on top of the light and a few screws that need removed to take the light out. Then install cover and re-install the light. put access cover back on. Repeat for the other side.

I slid mine in from the front of the car. Put one end of the blackout in slide it as far as you can and then slide it back under the other side.
