No screws must twist or something cant get it to budge, the lense or the whole fitting must come out, lense are 3/4 golf ball size, 2 of one each side both globes blown. any other ideas. |

if it's anything like the vitara the plug/globe holder unscrews 1/4 turn from the lense/backing plate which are glued together |

Ok so heres proof they come off....  And here you should be able to see the notches that hold it in place  My left side comes out easier than the right due to dirt etc sticking to it, but it will come out
