Just CLEARED my Tails "WooHoo"

Went over to Jason's "TheBigSaddler" house today and he cleared my tails, looks awesome so much better than that stupid orange slice of plastic.

How do you clear the tails on the 2k2? Do you have to remove the entire light fixture, if so, then how? Im pretty new to "do it yourself" mods and I wanna make sure I don't screw it up permenantly, my parents would shoot me if I did.

You might as well buy some 2000-2001 SE Tails, they look real sweet cause their smoked on the outside and the blinker is already clear, i dunno why Nissan had to change something that was already good on the previous 5th gens.

My 1st attempt came out ****ed up for 1 reason, I left them in the oven for too damn long I just slightly melted the top of the lens and it is a little curved when u come up close u can see it. But I will clear them again when I have time, i am also looking for the outer tail light on the right side so I can make them perfect. It's not that hard, you need to take your time doing it... also if someone who had done them before and cut out the flourescent light cover perfectly would be kind enough to post some sort of a template online for cutting them out in it's actual size that would be a great help, my biggest problem was cutting out a perfect replacement clear light cover to stick it in there, mainly because of the lack of tools.

Anyways,
VQdriver, I will do them for you for free if you want to, but you have to run in the 13s N/A
