However you do it, you don't need to remove the entire bumper. Just raise the front (one side at a time), unbolt the bolts underneath the front bumper on each side, and reach in to remove the amber reflectors & reinstall the clear ones. It's a tight fit in there especially the passenger side so bring lots of patience with you.

Yeah its a ***** to do and you will walk away with cut up arms. Use the shortest phillips head screw driver you can find, shouldn't take too long once you get the bumper partially unbolted. ON the drivers side you can partially remove the inner fenderwell and go from that angle. On the passenger side you can't do that because the windshield washer jug is in the way. On this side go up from the bottom.

The driver's side is easy. Just remove the wheelwell moulding. The passenger side is a different story. I was able to remove the bolts that hold the windshield washer container-a slow process but nothing technical. Once you pull the jug back a little, its simple. James
