Who was clearing 97-99 Tails for $$$?

I need to get my rear tails cleared, just that I don't want to buy a heat gun and all that other stuff, and run the risk of cracking my lenses.

Who was the person how was kind enough to offer to clear them in exchange for some cash?

Thanks!

If you were in DC metro, I'd clear it for $30 bucks.

I'd help you out but I live on the East Coast. I'm in LA a fair amount and will be moving out there early next year. You don't need a heat gun, mostly patience. Let me know if I can help.

Do them yourself

They are so easy to do. You don't need a heat gun, bake them in the oven at 220 deg. for 15 - 20 minuts. They come apart really easy. The cost of the flourescent light cover at your local hardware store is about 5 bucks!!!! Takes about 1 1/2 hours to complete the job.

Thanks guys!!

Thanks guys!! I love being part of the Maxima.org family

The thing is that I bought an extra pair of tails just in case I messed up, and guess what? when I was finally getting the lens off, it kinda cracked in the middle, so I'm done trying to clear them on my own and I want some one that has experience on this.

So I'm willing to ship them out and have a pro do them.

Who on the West Coast is willing to give me a hand?

Thanks again!!!

Just don't turn up the heat up too high or keep the taillight in there too long.
