each taillight has only 2-3 screws on the top. take it off. and slide taillight to outside <--- and ---->. do not try to pull the taillight it wont come out. that is all easy mod.... good luck!!

ttrx74me 08-04-04 02:17 PM

If so its easy, take the 3 both out of the top of the lens, then slide to the left for the driver and to the right for the passenger.

ttrx74me 08-04-04 02:18 PM

Good luck! Post some pics when you're done, I'd like to see how it went.

Yea wow, talk about jumping the gun. I like to know what I'm getting into before taking things off the car.

Let alone preventing you from driving it...unless you do an "escort taillight" conversion while you wait for your tails to come back like me ;)

Ryan Wolfe did mine. They arrived today, going to pick em up at the Post office tomorrow morning!

I could have done it myself, but it's too meticulous and takes too much effort that I don't have in this 85 degree ALL HUMIDITY weather we've been having.

ReDLiNe@t9 08-04-04 11:31 PM

wow i did it and it was so damn easy
.i will post pics later.................................i got creative and because i have a star theme to my car i put stars in the lights instead..........it came out mint

ill post pics later................if anyone wants me to do theres ill do it for 40 bucks......

ReDLiNe@t9 08-06-04 11:09 PM

i have pics of the starlights.....but som1 has to tell me how to put the pic in the thread...its too big a file to attach....

cripsR6 08-07-04 07:33 AM
