blacked out tail lights ?????? NEED HELP

OK i have been searching for like an hour and haven't came up with anything on this one. Want to know if on a 2010 tacoma anyone has done or heard of anyone trying the same style of bhlm where they put the head light in the oven and split it half on the tail lights?????

 

Don't you want the sleepyheads and drunks to SEE you really well via the very safe lights you have? You guys risk your safety to look "cool" for a fleeting moment in daylight? Back in the old days we had clip-on smoke lenses we could remove at night. What ever happened to that? Sorry Craig it's just you have a beautiful new truck there for someone your age-why take chances with it?

 

still sell clip-on..ish covers for the tail lights. Have them on in my sig picture. not sure if there's a way to do it or a write up or what ever. sorry im no real help

 

I searched today for this same thing. All i found was that it wont work as the tail lights arent glued together the same way the headlights are. Some guys have taken a dremel and cut of the tail light lenses, but its difficult to put them back together.

 

haha my dad is eating dinner right behind me and keeps telling me about these clip ons your talking about and i have never seen them before..

 

yeah i have been saving my money for a relentless front and rear man

 

yeah idk if im really up for that have you tryed

 

where did you buy them and are they a pain to put on and take off??

 

No i havent tried, i read the right up on it but its a little too sketchy for me. I was scared enough when i did the BHLM. i dont have any money to buy new tail lights if i were to ruin mine. I actually just got done tinting mine, im still in the garage admiring my handiwork as we speak

 

Yeah I haven't seen them around anymore-sad though, they made super nice custom fit ones and you paid a good price too. I had a set that fit right into the headlight caverns on my '86 Camaro-that thing looked mean too. They had them for the taillights too but I wanted people to SEE my lights as they told people what I was about to do. I think you should leave them alone. Not worth it IMO. Your truck is nice all on its own.

 

haha hell yeah man yeah i wanna do my front head lights black out mod just scared to do it lol... i did my color matched grill and was scared i would mess that up.. so thats why i wanted to know if you could do the tail lights cuz there cheaper lol

 

AVS is the brand and there a velcro set up. you can remove the velcro and try and fab up some clips or something but the velcro is a good strong velcro.

 

This is about as good a write up for a tail light mod as I have seen.

You must cut the lens off, it is plastic welded together. If you put your tails in the oven, it will just melt.

Here is the link to a good write up about how to do the BTLM. Goodluck.
