New way to remove red and yellow taillight covers

[chrysler kid]

ok i am from way back, i read the forum and never posted. I remember you guys and i'm shocked to see that all of you are still here.

any how i have a new method for making your taillights clear. Back in the day you guys use to break the taillights with a chizel. Now i read a while ago the you have been using warm water. Well i am here to say this : You can also put them in the oven Yes it works most cars, so i assume even the 3g.

First take off the taillights and remove the bulbs. Then place in over and set temp to 300 degrees fareinheight (sp?) for 6 minutes. i have some pics i will post a lil later on.

Any how i havent checked the board lately so tell me if i have already stated the obvious.

Let me know if i need to resize my sig, i noticed its alot bigger than most of yours <edit> nevermind

[military mase]

YEAH, I PRETTY MUCH USED THE SAME CONCEPT BUT I USED A HEAT GUN. I WAS AFRAID TO PUT IT IN THE OVEN BECAUSE OF THE FRAME MELTING OR SOMETHING

[cein_leon02]

guys 2 tell you all the truth. I think that clear lights do not look good on our cars. I thinkthat we are better off with painting them red. Sorry don't mean to piss anybody off just giving my opinion

[HondaBoy]

isnt that red car actually a eagle talon? looks like it. and i thought mitsubishi made the 4 cylinder chrysler engines from what the dealership always says. hmm.

[accordboricua]

cein leon Im with ya...i think clears just dont match our cars...We are better off with all red tails..yup. Take look at a 3gee with all red tails...then one with clear tails...ull see.

[dXsquared]

well that is a talon... so a few things are happenin here... he dont have an eclipse or talon... he has an eclipse and he dont have a pic so he took that off the net... or that is his car and he doesnt wanna call it an EAGLE TALON

Yep, that red car is a Talon, but, like chrysler said, the GS and RS Eclipses, along with the lower model Talons all came with the same mopar motor. The GSX and GST, and TSi and TSi AWD all came with the DSM 4 banger. Triiikkkky, I know, but hey even that little 140 hp mopar engine has a bolt on turbo kit that is readily available. Not just that, but that's not a bad engine to begin with. However, the DSM engine has been know to put out some rediculous reliable horsepower. www.pruvenperformance.com

I think a white 3g would look cool w/ clear tails

Poor guy...

[carlessNcareless]

someone clear this DSM shit up, my friend has a POS 93 talon DL auto, NO HOPE for performance ive discovered..but through reading all this shit, Diamond Star Motors is some car company that manufactured all these cars and then chrylser took them and made thier 3 versions of it???? and if so then whatver happened to this company?? did they make any other cars? the starion/conquest?? the original 3000gt/stealth? some1 help

[Defiant[YD]]

hold up....
k, i thought the talons were by mitsubishi. cuz when i check engine oil at my work for the talons, all of em say the engine is by mitsubishi, that would make it basically an eclipse.
even the dodge colts and the 2000GTX, and the stealths have the mitsubitshi engine in em.

[MrBen]

Hey uh guys, this is the CLEAR TAIL LIGHT thread.


Get your own thread =P

[88LXiHB]

Mitsubisgipse/ Plymouth Laser/ Eagle Talon are all the same car

DSM=E/L/T/GVR4

All the same engines, even some hundais (can't spell that shit...) had the non-turbo 4G63

Think about the name DSM, does it seem to describe what the Mitsubishi emblem looks like? Maybe that's just coincidence, but that's what I always thought about to have it make a little more sense to me.

how does the oven turn red tails clear ?

[88accord]

i dont understand

[Defiant[YD]]

no, the oven does not turn the red tail lights clear.
it just heats the plastic so that u can prolly "peel" it off. this would allow u to install the already cut and bent plexiglass material, that would make ur tail lights clear. yasu has a how-to on installing that stuff. but this is just another way to TAKE OUT the red/ember plastic cover on ur stock taillight.

[Mike's89AccordLX]

ovens don't turn the lights clear it removes them
