If you're considering modding your s5 tails.
It's very easyy
I was kinda sketched out to do them at first
as far as cooking them for 10 minutes at 200 degrees
but with patience and having to throw them back in a few times for about 2 or 3 minutes the lenses just pop off

SO
It's easy
even a 15 year old can do it

ive done this as well. its pretty easy and looks really good in the end.
i tinted mine and added a think clear coat after that because my lenses are in kinda bad condition.
and cops arent too friendly around here.
i also took the time to repaint the black trim and get rid of the reflector

Taking them apart is VERY easy. The only way you could break these is if you try to.
Yeahh
i waited for the oven to be completely at 200 degrees
put cookie sheets in to set them on
made sure the plastic wasnt touching anything
waited for 10 minutes
pulled them out
got a flat head screw driver/
scrapped off a lot of glue off where the lense meets with the bulb holder thing?
put them back in for 2 minutes
pulled the lense of SLOWLY
in order to take the orange lense off you have to take the red lense off
because they kinda interlock together
if that makes any sense at all
aha
then once you have all the lenses off the diffuser just pops off pretty much
then i actually put the tail light back in for another 2 minutes
then put the orange lense on
then the red one
by warming it up again the glue gets soft again and you can kinda mold the plastic over it again
