There are guides fo the older models. It will involve putting the headlights in an oven.
It softens the glue to take the lens off, then you paint the inside.

Its the easiest way for an amatuer.

Nothing sarcastic about that. I was interested to know how you think it would be done as you seemed shocked that people paint the insides.
