Painting the inside of tail lights.

[Svensunn]

Hey all,

Has anyone attempted to open up the tail lights to paint the inside of them? I'm not talking about night shade or dipping the exterior. I have heard of people baking open head lights and some tail lights. Others using a dremel to open them and then re-sealing them after. I want to get them open so I can paint the chrome part inside of them black. Any info or help is appreciated,

Thanks!

I've done it with my old Tacoma tail lights and now it's started a trend for that. Required cutting them open.

The Fiesta tails won't be nearly as easy as the Tacomas due to the odd shape and thin plastics, but yes basically use a hot knife to cut them open and then plastic-weld them back shut.

With that said, these tails are pretty cheap quality, so be patient.
