hey guys i know i might sound stupid for not figuring this out yet, but i need some help on how to get the tail lights out. i've messed with every screw possible in the back of the car but cannot figure it out for the life of me. an explanation from anyone with mercy on me would be appreciated! thanks.
There is a nasty sticky goopy crap that lines the inside of the tail light to seal them from the elements. Thats probably all thats holding it on if you've taken off all the bolts.
^^ he's right! Use a plastic wedge of some sort to slowly ease them out of their spots....just keep going around until all the goop shit is cut off with the plastic wedge!
and when you put them back on make damn sure you replace the goopy stuff with silicone or more goopy stuff or something or you'll get loads of water in your trunk rotting your carpetz
Spoken from someone with experience I think!!! And dont forget to tighten the nuts- especially if you have a Woofer or 2 in the back :?
alright thanks guys! here's a before/after pic to show you guys how it turned out. i didnt want them too dark so they're probably a little lighter than what you guys thought. also i didnt touch the seperate side lights and i taped off the white reverse lights. just tryin to add a little personality to it. hope you guys like it!
I noticed in the USA you could get a factory spoiler on the ST or GT. Not for us in Canada. PS - I think that goopy sealer is called butyl rubber or something like that.
acoustaseal is good stuff too...or acoustic seal or something...They use it for sealing between the vapour barrier and studs in construction. Thats what I used
i used plain old black silicone i got from napa...when they say "use in well ventilated area" they mean it...that was an interesting day :lol:
