There are 3 screws you have to undo from the inside of the door.

go to subiegal's homepage and search for the installation guide of the LED turn signal. There is detail instruction.

bump, simply do you remove the triangle plastic plate, or the entire door plastic trim

the little triangle, use a screwdriver, it's REALLY easy
