I pick my MY01 up tomorrow so in anticipation I want to know how to remove the indicators and reflectors from the wing to replace with clear items. Is it easy and what do I have to remove, unscrew etc. ( I presume the inner wing has to be removed!)

Easy tiger!

No need to get violent or dismantle the car - leave that until you start the serious mods.

To remove the side indicators slide them forwards until you can ease the rear of the indicator out from the body. If you have to use any tools, you haven't slid them far enough forwards. When they are out, swop the electrical connector from the old to the new. As the best manuals say, assembly is the reverse procedure.

Similarly, for the reflectors, slide them up and the base can be eased out.

This is one of the easiest mods you can do, provided you keep cool and don't use unnecessary force.

Take it easy with the reflectors. Mine were really tight. Tips of my fingers were white and numb for a week after

Patience is a virtue...
