Default Parking light assembly replacement?

Would like to replace the parking light lens assembly on my 2003 Vert. Minor crack in the corner of the lens. I prefer to do this myself w/o taking it to the dealer. Any advise would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Are you replacing the front?If so,remove the bottom closeout panel and you will have plenty of room.About 5 or 6 screws and it comes off.You will have to raise the front end to reach everything though.
