Not sure about yours but on my R52 the light assembly is held in with spring tension. You push the entire light one way and pop out to replace bulb.

I'm familiar with the R53 and R56, but the R60 looks different

I swapped out my whole scuttle light too with a smoked LED assembly. Looks much better. As others have said, it's just held in by two clips (top and bottom) visible on ECSTuning's picture above.

Do you have a picture of the new LED lights flashing? I ordered the same ones a week ago.
Thank you
