hey unv, it's a little late now, but did you ever consider putting black overlays on the amber and reinstalling them instead of just removing them?

lol really bad, you can melt the housing, you can burn grill marks into the plastic. you can melt a tab. there are a lot of things you can do wrong. But what are your chances of doing this? well if you are slow and take your time you should not have any problems. If your really worried i will sit on the phone with you while you are baking them and taking them apart and help you out. kinda like holding your hand for your first day of kindergarden
