Derm,


They are not glass but plastic.  You can grind off the tabs and get them out and then when re chromed, they can be silicone back in place if they are ok.


There are several posts on getting the lense out of the frames.

Try entering "tail light lenses" in the search function on the upper right of the main forum page.

SEARCHING TIPS


 if you use the upper right search button, it will only search the current section you are in.  If you want it to do a full search then use the Search button in the Home line of buttons.  Its a common error many are making when they are having difficulty finding anything in a search.
