VAVolvo Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 Just finished up installing the '95-'97 style rear lights. Got them off of a wrecked '95 850 at a shop a buddy of mine works at. Cleaned them up and tinted them with Model Master 2949, then added a coat of Model Mast 2936 for a clear coat. Man they look great! I didn't just tint the whole light, I covered the clear part so the turn signals and reverse lights remain clear. I hope it's legal to have clear turn signals.Just a side note: If your converting from '94 style to '95-'97 style, you might need a Dremel tool to help you cut off some unwanted plastic to make the light blub esemble fit.Anyway, it really does add a subtle, modified look that can't be beat!

They should have it there. And yes, by the way, they do look sick!PEACE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

850GLT333 Posted November 29, 2004 Report Share Posted November 29, 2004 I think...unless i read his discription wrong...that its the opposite of that pic. So the red part of the tail light is tinted and the turn signal part is still clear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VAVolvo Posted November 30, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2004 This is the general Idea: ← YUUUCKKK! Mine are the exact opposit of what you did. Tinted the red part but left the white part untouched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theunderlord Posted November 30, 2004 Report Share Posted November 30, 2004 M'kay, that's not my car... I was just showing you what could be done.. And IMO, this looks WAY better than having smoked brakelights... but whatever... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
