so you take a heat gun/blow dryer to the back of the lights to seperate them and then:

a) how do you get rid of the amber? break it out or?

b) how do you reseal them? any chance of moisture getting back in?

just pulls out with a good tug...then to reseal them...heat them up again & put them back togethter...i put a light coat of permatex around the housing & the lens...just to make sure it doesnt leak

Default why I ask

It looks great, but I think I'd still be partial to putting yellow bulbs in...

When my rear quarter panel red reflector thing busted, I noticed that there was red bulbs under the red reflector... that's why I ask...
