LMAO...Have you seen where the aston martin trunk release is?? They put a chrome nipple right in the middle of the trunk lid. We're not alone.

If not I'll just go with bluebat overlays...but i really just want to get rid of the amber.. temporarily
I know I'm a noob but how exactly do you go about opening up your lights?

How do you get them out and how do you take them apart??

Hey Moe,

Did you paint it BO or flat black? Im thinking about driving to NY and having Igor get rid of my gross *** amber but cant decide.

What does he do with the bulb inside the amber reflector? Does it still come on but not show through because the reflector is painted black?

I used your DIY for baking the lights. Really thorough. Thanks.

But I used Igor's DIY to remove the lights which seemed easier.
