They look mint beats the curvy ones i don't want to say it but i might have to steal this mod :( sorry..

lol, all good, it's a cheap way for a fresh look. Less than $20 each. Part number is 92146717. I like these much better as the old ones were the only frosted and curved lens on the whole car. Just DON'T forget the amber globes!

Sorry never had any experience with that type but if I remember correctly, big if, the VTII I put on the VS were twist and pull.

Edit: hang on a minute, guard liner, why would you do that if you can pop them out of the guard?

Yeah the old ones just slid forward and then pulled out. These new ones will not even move, maybe a bit harder to get a grip on them, or maybe just because the rubber is new an grips the panel more. Not sure. That's why I'm saying not to forget amber globes :)

Should have had the orange globes in there already. Previous owner must have put the wrong globes in there.

Nope, the old original lenses actually have an orange tint behind the clear plastic so they don't have amber globes.
