I didn't need to remove any body panels, I just reached up underneath the car.

i didn't need to reach anywhere. just push the lens towards the rear of the car and it pops out. It tells you to do that in the owners manual

For the rear lenses... If you just reach up from the back and under side of the bumper you can reach the lenses. Makes it much much easier then taking 2 screws out and popping your bumper back. :)
