    If it's indicator lights your talking about on the front wings I think you push them forward towards the front of the car and then pull them out towards you from the back (if that makes sense. Sorry but US and UK terminology has me a little confused as to exactly what it is your trying to replace). If it's the front kidney grills your talking about, the easiest way is to whip off the front bumper, it can be done without this but I've tried both ways and it's just easier to take the bumper off and doesn't take long.

    Hsurf, I've tried pushing it towards the front of the car with no success. Actually pushed it until it felt like it was going to break and it won't budge! Any other suggestions?

    You're pushing it the wrong way! Here's how it's done (see further down the page):
