Hey everyone...I have searched the sites and can not find any instructions or help ideas in how to remove the rear turn signals so I can replace my trim rings. Can anyone point me in the right directions for instructions or let me know how or what to remove to get at the lights? Thanks.
Thanks for the pics but I guess what I should have asked about is what parts of the panels inside do you have to pull off and how to get at the lights? Thanks.

Great!!! I just pulled them and checked it out. At least now I have access and I can begin bitching tonight trying to get at those bolts. Thanks cursor.
FYI - I wrote up some more detailed instructions in that thread here. Those pics were helpful, but didn't tell the whole story, at least not for me. I'm not super mechanically inclined. I can figure it out in my head, but applying to reality isn't as easy.
While is was replacing the trim rings on my R60, and reading alot about how to do it, I notice the rear light assembly is very easy to put back.
In looking at the clips that keep the light assembly in place are pressure clips. So after removing the outer clips to take it off, put the clips back on and tighten before putting it back. Use your hand or a rubber mallet to smack it back in place. The lights are secure and I hosed them down but no leaks.
With a socket adapter and an 8MM deep socket. That upper-inner one is still a pain, but doesn't require as much contortion. I do recommend tying a string or something to the driver though, just so you can pull it out if you drop it. I dropped it once and had to use a magnet snake to get it out.
