Tint/Smoke side markers?

I was thinking of tinting my side marker lights (the ones next to the headlight) and wondered if it was possible? It seems as though I saw someone's sig on here that looked to have this done, but not 100% sure.

I was fooling with mine earlier and was trying to get the lens off the housing by pushing the (4) little plastic tabs that seemed to be holding it in place, without any luck. Any info or pics etc. on this would be appreciated.

you need to stick them in the oven on 250 degrees for 10-15 min to heat up the glue an pull them apart

Cool thanks for the info....now my next question...did you use like nightshades tint spray to tint the inside of the lens, because that's what I was going to try. If not, plmk what you guys used, it looks really nice.
