Yeah one of mine has just got condensation in I see, apparently quite a fiddly job and easy to crack/snap when removing, although simple enough proceedure I think!

These bits are make up like so, one end has a section of plastic that is a clip but it can be compressed, the other end has a fixed tang, so to remove them you need to slide them fore or aft until you have compressed the clip end, that should be enough to allow you to ease up the tang end as the tang should now be completely away from under the wind metal. Other method is to remove some fixings of the wheel arch liner and get your hand up to compress this clip and so get the light come out of the wing - only problem with this approach is that you might need to replace some plastic inserts that are the nuts for these wheel arch liner fixings.
