Chuck Norris' car has some sick tail lights on them, and I was wondering how to set them up this way? Anyone know? Thanks

Take clear lens off outside of taillight
remove colored inner lenses
clean inside of taillight
reinstall clear outer lens

and replace clear bulbs with colored ones. Good luck on finding red ones.

In UK red bulbs aren't a problem but there is always those kids craft lightbulb painting sets if all else fails.....

I was wondering if someone would bring up IoTus' lights. Way back when I got him to make me a set. I absolutely love them. Along with Dan Atkins' clear corner lights it really helps the look of my car :)

superbrightleds.com has some nice red LED bulbs. I hear they work great!

I just painted Iotus last summer, and re did the lens at the same time. So they are nice and clean looking.

Archiving just so that I never lose this link!

I am definitely going to give these a try when the car gets back from the shop!
