you have to take the grill off first, which is just a few clips accessed with a screwdriver from the top, then a few at the bottom. You can usually reach these with your hands while gently pulling back the grill.
Once the grill is off take out your side indicators. There attached using a small screw that needs a 6 socket if memory serves...
Then slide out the indicators and let em dangle. Now revealed to you is more screws, same size socket as before i think and voila your done.

I didn't swap it for a different style, i just replaced it cos it had a big hole in it.
