Well this is one of those rare occasions where I can help out the group. To remove the turn signal lens/ assembly, all that is needed is to remove the black plastic pin (Next to the fender bolt), and pull the whole thing out. It's mostly attached by press in "tabs" Mine was already busted so I was able to reach in and disconnecte the bulb socket by twisting it out of the lens assembly and this may have made the job easier, but the plastic pin is really the only thing keeping the whole thing from popping right out. You may also find it easier if you pull off the front bumper cover, but again I had mine off before so it was no big deal. (4 bolts and it pulls off)

Yeah it was quite difficult to get even the headliht out at first. You just have to literally yank it out after removing all the pins/screws, same goes for the corner lens.Take out your headlights first then work on the corner lens.
