yea, you just have to be really really careful and take a flat head screwdriver and there's like a lil tab thing u push in then it will pop out

and if you do end up breaking 1 off they can easily be glued back on

Still looks really good... Do they light up the inside better then the stock lights or about the same?

Well i been helping my sister move all weekend so i didn't get to do my lit rear panel.. but today i had like a half hr of daylight left so i wired up 2 of the 8 led strips i got

You can already see the dif here, drivers side has 1 led strip pass side has just the green bulb

I plan on putting 2 on the back floor boards, 2 in the trunk and then i'll have 2 left so if anyone has any ideas to place the other 2 let me know
