just buy new ones , it will look tidier and not bodged mate

sell the clears on ebay, buy some standard rear clusters, mask off the black bits and spray with red tinting spray from halfrauds/ripspeed. job done and you'll actually end up with more money than when you started lol

it wouldnt loook as good imo.. using the standerd ones..

imo the clears would look better painted..

get red ones - dont use the spray - its nasty and get it wrong and you'll lose 30%+ off the brightness of the bulbs - police dont like it either...

My rears are tinted black and I've driven for 3 years with them on various different cars and never been pulled over. Also sailed through mot's at 3 different mot stations with them on without any questions. They are similar in darkness to Ford Sierra's.

I would agree though the proper red ones do look better than tinted versions.
