Yet another 99 tail light converstion thread
Well, I finished this project up this morning while watching M. Schumacher decimate the f1 field again 
I started off using my wife's mega hairdryer, but her baby travel hair dryer actually put out better heat and worked much faster. I think I positioned the turn signal circles just a hair too low, but you really have to look to see.
Ramps are there because I had the front end jacked up troubleshooting a mild coolant leak.

No problem i don't mind helping you out, but it's pretty simple. I used this link:

If I had to do it again, I'd buy a heat gun, it would save a lot of time.

again, no problem. Let me know if you still want help. My head is still big from fixing my admitedly mild coolant problem today 
(This is the first car I've owned that required regular work done to it, my toyota DD has 103K on the clock and i've done nothing more than change the oil and put gas in it. I've done more to my FD in 2 months than I've ever done to that truck)
