Default 2018 Q5 Side Marker Replacement

I have a cracked front left side marker lens. I've located a couple of replacement sources, but I'm clueless as to how to remove/replace the lens.

Can anyone point me in a direction?

Havnt had any reason to look, but if you pull back the inner finder liner, it's probably accessible through there. If it's anything like the rear, you'll have to pull off the fender trim, and then there's a few torx heads holding the liner up

No idea how it is in the Q5 but in the A4, it is glued on. You need a heat gun to soften the glue and push the lens out via the wheel well. You’ll need to unscrew the plastic cladding in the wheel well.
