Are you talking about the turn signals in the front bumper or the sidemarkers on the fenders? I don't know anything about polishing them but talking both off is easy. There's just one screw on the side you take out then the whole thing comes out on an angle and just pulls right out. It's easy. Someone else will have to tell you the rest bout polishing them though.

Use a rubbing compound, then a polishing compound, then wax to make them look brand new!

put it in the oven for a few seconds and let the glue heat up then use a screwdriver to push the little stopper down so u could pull it off... i would just polish it while its still on the housing though

I agree with bslik. I'd just leave it all in once piece and polish the lens while it is still attached to the housing. Unless the inside of the lens is dirty. In which case, bslik is still right on the money. Just pop it in the oven for a little bit (temperature?) and then there should be a few tabs holding the lens in place. Pop those off with a flathead screwdriver and you're set.
