Changing the color or the red rear lights

Hi!

I was wondering if you know if it's possible to remove the red color from the original MK5 Rear lights?
If it's possible, tell me how

its in the plastic so you need to change the lense(sp?) on the mk5 peel back the carpet in the boot and you will see 4 10mm (possibly 8mm) nuts that have to be undone and then unplug the wires and voila!

sorry I wrote a long posting but the damn PC hung on me so you will have to make do with this concise version!

Halfords do a spray called light/rear light tint, a can of spray that you can use on you rear lenses and most probably your indicators. Come in black, blue, green, orange and red. Cost about Â£12 and is a hell of a lot cheaper than buying a whole new set of rear lenses but have the same effect if done properly. Company called Foliatech make it.

Hope this helps.

Dont mean to offend, but have you checked his location?

*think popping to halfords is a bit out of the way*
