well, i was looking for tail lights, so you know. And i found out that all i had to do was pull the 2 nuts from the inside of the panel to remove them, i then taped them off and sprayed with rust-o-leom lens tint, you can pick it up at any auto zone or pep boys for about $6-7. good quality, i then used a buffing compound i had in my shop, went over it 2 times lightly, and then clear coated with rust-o-leom clear coating. Turned out great. i also did the mirror turn signals, but i need to pull the tint and re-do them, they are a little dark..
