Removing late type fog lamp bezels.

Have just bought the late type bezels with SS trim, wondered if anyone on here had removed/changed the later square type. All advice welcome.

10 second job.

In the existing, you will find a small slot. Insert screwdriver or other flat-headed implement into slot, and prise out complete. Replacements simply snap in. Job jobbed. Foraging near Gaydon....

The small slot is about 4mm wide, you can get a small flat blade screwdriver between the glass and the bezel and gently lever it out Thumbs Up p****d off with a Digital Keyboard Warrior

Thanks for the input, bezels now changed, and look great. Odd how a small detail makes a vehicle so much better looking.

May I enquire; is the shiny ring a separate chrome finisher or is the complete plastic bezel just surface chromed on the ring - or is it silver painted ?
