Ok. I'm about to flip out!
Just purchased a set of rear led reflector from ijdmtoys. There removal instructions are vague at best. I've figured out how to remove EVERYTHING but the damn wheel well bolts/screws. I'm talking about the inner wheel well where there is some type of plastic cover with an arrow pointing up.![2016 IS350 Rear Bumper Removal-photo820.jpg](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/attachments/is-3rd-gen-2014-present/397403d1476685058t-2016-is350-rear-bumper-removal-photo820.jpg)

How the hell do I get at these?!?!?
I realize at the bottom there is a hole to insert a screw driver but is it a screw, a fricken nut or what???

I followed this rear bumper removal thread for the RC350. It's pretty much the same for the IS350. I did have to remove the rear wheel to gain easy access to the 10 mm bolt in the wheel well area. I used a ratchet with an extension and 10mm socket.

No worries. I've been taking pics of my install to share. I do have a few suggestions to make the wiring install a little easier as you'll find when installing that creating an extension with quick connectors will help tremendously.
Just finished installing and testing the right side. Will post a complete write up once finished.

Here is my original install thread. If I could give any advice I'd say return them and save yourself the headache of removing them. I had leds on both begin to fail around a year. I've updated the thread with what happened to them and how it looked. Looks like ***** when they started to fail. Removed.
Good luck.
