Hey guys,i bought some black side repeaters and i tried removing my clear side repeaters.
What would you suggest to do to remove my side repeater?? Mine are glued on so i can't really just yank it off.
Is there an actual correct procedure to remove them.
Advice needed.

If it's quite literally glued right in, just get something angry and cut it off

You sure its glued in  ? If it is i would consider removing the whole wing so you can carefully remove it without doing to much damage to the paint.

What is the normal procedure then to remove them?? Because i tried every possible way and they just won't unclip themselves and as for removing wing. I don't really want do that as i have had hard time doing it once.
