Link needed for FAQ

I need links for red/clear tail light conversions. I'd like comprehensive How-to's with pics if anyone has them.

I need them for both styles: 95/96 and 97-99

I tried searching, but couldn't find anything good.

Ben, I remember a thread a while ago where someone managed to cut out the orange piece from a 95/96 taillight.

That's the one you're talking about, right? I searched and couple find anything either.

For my 96 Max I just painted the top orange lens with clear paint. Bam! Red/clears for $3.95 from Wal Mart. If anyone is interested I will post full instructions with pictures.

If you paint over the orange with clear paint ... isn't it still orange?

I wondered why it didn't look right.

recently, I read a great thread

with instructions on how to make orange signals red -- the post had a
link to an Acura website that had step-by-step instructions...it looked
really good too.

I havent found a good write-up for taking apart clears for a 95/96 to paint the inside. That's what I need.
