Tinting the outsides of the light FTL, insides FTW. I was going to suggest polishing them with PlastX but the tint is on the outside

The one I have for sale are lightly tinted inside and polished outside. How else do you think I got that damn amber turn signal piece out?

But they are super light... it was my DD so I didn't let the tint dry all the way and so it lightened up as it dried on my car...

i've seen people take the amber out without baking the lights.......not nearly as clean or easy, but i'm a nub when it comes to baking lights.

Yeah I screwed my OEM one doing that... that's why I'm not selling them. Heres the kicker: when I opened them up I didn't even blackhouse them, I just wanted to polish the other side of the lens...

You can get that amber piece out by shattering it with a screwdriver. <- not the best way IMO
