rear reflectors f32

Anyone know how to remove these? are they bolted in from the back and is it a bumper off job or can it be got to from underneath?

The are easy to remove, they are clipped in.
I used a flat head on one side to pull it out, then you just use your hands.

Not a great photo, but I tinted mine.

You can get to them underneath. Don't try and prise them from the outside as they are brittle at the ends. Push down on the top of the centre tab and push so the middle bows outwards, then you can pull it gently from the outside and it will pop out.
