It only has one... the top screw. Remove that then its just a matter of yanking it out towards the front of the car... parallel to the ground

well if it come with 2 then i guess u have to modified it and fine a way to take it off so it fit on your car lol and yea all you need to do is slide it out to get the corner light out. and slide the new one in UNLESS it has what you said then just try to break that part off lol... but normally it should only be one.. and on the accord there only one which is the top screw. slide it out, should be pretty easy or look at your car manual.. it tell you everything you need to know.

My front and back bumpers have clear lens w/ clear light bulbs... I still have not been pulled over. But my rear tail lights still have a yellow bulb in them.

muffinman is correct. i just posted in a thread about de-ambering taillights. you should check with the local codes to see what is good and what wont work. if you do have to keep an orange light, you can find those stealth bulbs on ebay, silver that light up orange.

you should have only one screw for your 5th generation corner lights. i've been through so many corners on my CD7 and never stumbled over one that has 2 screws. and also that you are going to be using a clear corners. in most states you are required to use AMBER color lights. although its not a high end traffic violation. it all depends on the COP if he/she wants to pull you over for somthing that stupid. but. here in NYS you have to have AMBER lights DOT law. any other color is punishable by a $30 ticket or higher.

i think AMBER is best for either clear or AMBER lights, and also getting the full amber bumper lights (for the front) looks good in my opinion.

just be carful if your not going to use AMBER lights. cause depending in the state your living that might be an illegal modification. and can risk eventually getting pulled over.

in most states the actual front turn signal has to be amber, an amber bulb in the clear lense wont cut it, at least this is what i was led to believe because when i was looking at lights for my 240, clean corners.com had some really nice LED turn signals that were clear, but when signaling, they turned amber, but they werent DOT legal.
