Need help removing fog lights, parking lights, and turn signals.
I just finished blacking out my taillights, just gotta wetsand them because the cold left some cracks in the paint and they look like ****.
But now I want to do my Fog Lights, Parking Lights, and the Turn Signal Lights. I need some help removing them. I didnt really check my car on how theyre in there so im unsure on how to get them out. The fog lights seem simple enough. But how about the parking lights and turn signal lights? Do I have to get under/behind the bumper to access them?
Ill be doing this tomorrow and was gonna see how they came off then, but id rather know ahead of time.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Yeah thats what i figured lol
by the time i got home from school i had to rush to work then didnt have enough light when i got home.
theres no removing of the bumper or anything crazy like that right? its basically just getting behind the bumper and popping them out?

Re: Need help removing fog lights, parking lights, and turn signals.
Oh also another thing. The chevy bowtie on the nose of the car. Is that held on with tape/adhesvies like the badges were? Because I found an extra on in my car and it has some sort of screw in it and it looks like its bolted in?
Im going all out here, my goal is to black out the entire car (; haha

Re: Need help removing fog lights, parking lights, and turn signals.
If the Camaro one is like my GTA one was.....
It isn't a screw, but just a stud that fits into a hole in the nose, to locate it in the correct spot. And has adhesive (basically super strong double-sided sticky tape) between the emblem back & nose, to hold it in place.

Re: Need help removing fog lights, parking lights, and turn signals.
Yeah thats exactly what it is. I just thought it was a screw that you bolted on from the other side of the nose.
Thats gonna be a mission to get off lol. Thanks for the replys guys, hopefully everything goes well tomorrow.

Dental floss or a thin blade (razor blade?) & patience. A heat gun wouldn't hurt either.
You gonna shave it like I did on my old RS or just taking it off to paint?

Re: Need help removing fog lights, parking lights, and turn signals.
Yeah I used a heat gun and dental floss for all my other badges. Kinda rushed on the 5.7 TPI emblem and took off some paint :/ easy fix though.
And im thinking about just painting it and putting it back on. When its off is there gonna be an indentation from where the badge sits? Or is it just a smooth surface after its off? Because if thats the case then ill just remove it completely.
