i think it has 3 - 10mm nuts and 2 clips or something close to that , you have to take down the carpet trim on the trunk lid and you need a deep socket. be careful with the clips , i got mine off and couldn't figure how to clear those orange pieces so i painted it black to match the car.

It means to remove the amber colored inner plastic piece from your taillight assembly that covers your directional light. Then you have clear tail lights. However; most states still require you to have either a red or amber colored bulb for directional'*.
