From my understanding they have some clips on them. Do you seem them arround the lens?

how did u remove the amber out of the corner? i know it 2 pieces but when i tried today it seemed like they were glued together

bake it, it's the same glue they use to glue the headlight lens.

If you are installing angel eyes and that is why you need to remove the lens, have no fear, deep them on and push on them a little. If you want to just leave thme out then grab some needle nose pliers and a flat headed screwdriver.
