    Question Lookin for advice on headlights

    Hey ya'll got another question... the orange reflectors on the head lights and running lights on my '03 Silverado, i was wondering if anyone has removed these or covered them OR know where you can buy something to make them clear. I dont want to buy whole new headlights because the ones i have are nice, but i do want to make them all clear. Thanks everyone!!

    From what i understand they can be removed but, you have to heat up the headlight to losen the glue then there are a couple of tabs that hold the amber "reflector" in.

    The heatin up thing is what i had heard from another guy i asked here... thanks for the info. Just to feed my creative (and extreamly bored mind) how do you think it would work out if i used the lens tinting spray that most folks use on tail lights, and tinted just the side? Ya'll reckon that might do the trick or would that be totally ghetto??

    if you were going to go that route I would do the whole light, otherwise it would look a bit odd.
