Take a pry bar to get them off. Then you take a hammer to put the clear corners back on. Be careful and make sure you do not use a rubber hammer. Use a big construction sledgehammer.

It was so easy thanks to your instructions! I didn't have a sledgehammer so I had to use a jackhammer.

I'm ordering two of everything on this site, just in case my sledgehammer does not work the first time.

It's a good thing you posted now, because in a little over two months the 7-year statute of limitations on this question will expire.

Did you really think this has never been done before?

Clear corners swap is slightly more difficult than an engine swap but not as difficult as a battery swap.
