I'm replacing my front turn signals with clear ones and unfortunately, I didn't get any instructions. If I'm thinking about this logically, and that's not always the case, all I have to do is remove the front fenders correct? Any one else done this? If so, how exactly and how long did it take you? Thanks.

I think you just detach them from behind, no fender removal. I could be wrong, though.

I did mine when I had the front fascia off of the car, but I think you could do it by removing the 3 phillips screws at the bottom of the wheel wells just in front of the tires, then pry the inner fender well from behind the fender lip. The light fixtures just clip in.

Easier if you take the bumper cover off the car, not the fenders.

From being under mine while changing the oil, it appears there may be enough room to do it with the front of the car on a set of ramps.

Duh... I'm an idiot. Yeah taking the front bumper off or raising the car seems like the best idea. I got under the car today and noticed that. Thanks though for the nudge in the right direction.

Be sure you go easy, don't want to break the retainer clips on the bumper itself.
