Default oh no, don't do it.

But, they pop out in about 2 minutes or less.
Pop open the interior covers with a screwdriver, turn the 2 little crank *****, and I think they're loose after that.

Default As others have said, not much love for the Altezza lights if that is what you are

looking at (I don't know of any other aftermarket ones)...

That said, though, it's your choice. Here is a link to my Fotki on the Roadster lights. Very similar on the coupe, just the access panels are different.<ul><li><a href="http://public.fotki.com/mcphill/audi_stuff/lighting_systems/uk_drivers_tail_light/">http://public.fotki.com/mcphill/audi_stuff/lighting_systems/uk_drivers_tail_light/</a</li></ul>
