Default Front Sidemarkers on xB....

I want to replace these with clear ones.....I don't think I've seen any posts on this, but how do you remove the OEM ones? are they pressure fit? all the posts I've seen are for the rear sidemarkers.....

Actually the safest way to remove them is to loosen the splash skirt just forward of the light so you can get your hand inside. One end of the lamp is a tab that pokes in under the sheet metal of the fender the other is a springy tab that latches the lamp to the fender (the forward end is this as I recall). Simply push toward the light on the springy end and it pops right out. Safer because if the spring tab end is a bit tight it may not want to come loose, simply pulling could possible damage the fender or the lamp.
