I know this might sound stupid but is it possible to colour code the awful orange bit in the rear lights.
Also does anyone know how you stand with the bizzies.

There are no legal problems as long as they are not to dark that you cant see the indicator. If you do it my way you also retain the reflector in the red part of the lights which is a legal requirement as i understand.

EDDIE,

i didnt change my bulbs i left them as they where... My indicators are a little difficult to see when the sun is shining on them but i was so pleased with the result i just live with it and ive had no trouble so far and its been done over a year..

I used proper tint spray and then laquered them, you can actually get the tint spray in green, dont know how this would look though..!

I have seen in the past where the light is covered in a realy light coat of paint the same colour of the car, this is best left to the pro's im sure a decent body shop would be able to do it.

Dan

Thumbs up

Yep just done this to my red scoob, tinted the orange bits red, looks well smart IMO

So now have a nice all red back, looks good with the debadge as well ...

Tint spray should be less than a tenner, do it.

Cheers
