Default Tail light lens removal???

Does anyone know if it is possible at all to remove the lens of the tail lights. I was able to get a set of LED lights from the sedan taillights and they would fit into the TI tail lights, but I don't want to cut up my tail lights if possible to try to modify them. Anyone know if there is some sort of way to lift the red lens off and then reattach them???

I guess you could go around the edge with an exact-o knife and cut the adhesive, I'd really suggest picking up a spare set of lights before you do this though

Anyone else with any suggestions
