Is it just a case of get a small screw driverr under them(carefully) and pop in / pop out

Ive just bought the clear side repeaters and reflectors for my MY01 WRX - so is it pretty easy job?

cheers

ADP,

If it's the same as a MY99 / 00 then you don't even need a screw driver. Catch hold of the lens the end closer to the front of the car and gently pull. They simply pull out, not hard at all

ADP,

Very very easy. It's not the same as MY99/00 ones though. If you're looking at the drivers side (for arguments sake) then get your fingers underneath the bottom edge of the reflector, if you pull up and back in line with the angle the reflector makes. This should relase the lip at the bottom which you can now pull away from the car and release the top forwards.

There is a metal spring type thing at the top which pushes the tab into place at the bottom.

Hope that this makes sense. If you want to wait and turn up to the Surrey meet (near Guildford on Sun 9th) I'll do it for you, in return for beer (only kidding, it's far too easy)
Cheers,

Simon

Edited to say, don't use a screwdriver. You will scratch the paint and regret it
