You are going to have to go underneath the car,and go through your air-dam area...not sure where,but that's the general location...its been a long time when I did mine..

Re: how to install front clear lenses?
what you'r going to have to do is go under your car, and right under the fog light assembly, there will be these two hex bolts. Take those out and that will give you access to the inside of the back of the bumper. Look up and you will see your corner lenses. Unbolt anything that is holding it in and take it out. Easier said than done. It WILL be a pain in the ***, but don't be afraid to use force. It will come out sooner or later. That is the exact way I did it when installing mine.

You guys installed them from the bottom? Interesting. I did mine from the top. It took a total of 20 mins. Try finding Dark Age 53 (aka Al). He has a great install write up. It's really very easy.
Edit: You are talking about clear corners right?

Did mine from the top. Disconnect electrical connections from the headlight. Remove 1 bolt that holds the headlight. Remove headlight. Now you have complete access to the corners. Remove thier electrical connections, and there should be 3 bolts holding them on. Remove those, and you will have a bit of wiggling to do to get them out.

Re: how to install front clear lenses?
They do come in and out through the headlight assembly. I have a set in my Z28. They were pretty easy to install. Actually, I'll sell you mine if you're interested. I am taking them out tomorrow. I can take pics and post them if you're interested.
Wait a second here...for some reason I don't think we are talking about the same thing. I'm talking about clear corners on a 98+ Camaro. The running lights below the actual headlights. You're throwing me off a bit by referring to your headlight covers.

Sorry I haven't gotten around to removing the clear corners. I just started a new job today and it's a bit overwhelming. Lots to do.
